2.1.5 widescreen patch - multiple columns on dashboard
-
So could I get widescreen under 2.1.4 by just appling the patch https://github.com/CharlieMarshall/pfsense/commit/7a775e8bf1a4771ee8d0217a2f66d415f9abc302 ?
-
Yes. As I said in my opening post. I have not included all he changes here which are in 2.2.
Totally missed that part.
Much appreciated for your fix, thank you sir. Works perfectly. 8)

Yes. I'm running it under 2.1.4.
I did a test and it says it can not be reverted ?
Patch can be applied cleanly (detail)

I guess I have to get the tar file first !

I should have mentioned that I used to original method from the beginning of the thread:
fetch -o /tmp https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/12367642/2.1.5_widescreen.tar.gz tar -zxvf /tmp/2.1.5_widescreen.tar.gz -C / -
I fetch your tar ball (couldn't fetch doktornotor's one from mega)
Then I applied the patch for picture.widget.php
Once the patch is applied, it show I can revert it … ;D -
About patches in pfsense gui. Someone correct me if I'm wrong but I belive when you click test it will only show if it can be applied cleanly. Once applied it will show if it can now be reverted cleanly. It can't be both and you can't revert something which hasn't been changed.
I found this confusing at first because the message makes it look like you can apply a patch and not revert it.
-
I have tried it and I am still getting an issue where the Help tab is right below the System tab. Is there any way that I could just remove help for the time being? This is preventing me from accessing option on the System menu.
Go to /etc/inc open globals.inc and find "disablehelpmenu" => false, and change it to "disablehelpmenu" => true,

Did and upgrade from 2.1.4 to 2.1.5
Reinstall the tar ball, widescreen is back but there is no Add/Delete button, so I am stuck with 2 columns display
-
I had the same problem, and it's ongoing. If I hammer the F5 key quickly twice, my original 4-column layout appears. A single F5 refresh puts it back into dual-column mode. Totally bizarre.
-
Nice trick … twice F5 bring back the buttons :o ;D
F5 and CTRL-F5 doesn't do it :(
-
Like I said, totally bizarre. But it works consistently, so at least there's that.
-
Since the last reboot … no more issues with the widescreen patch, I always get 3 columns display ;D
-
Ah, well there you go. I haven't rebooted since the 2.1.5 upgrade.

If your issues with the menu wrapping on pfsense (not caused by the patch but code adding in 2.1.5). Go to system > patches and apply this commit:
https://github.com/CharlieMarshall/pfsense/commit/2b5c16b9c6ee3dcb9a1333b44949f48024eb3cd0I do not have this option under system
I use pfsense 2.1.5Where it goes ?

Maybe you need to install the Package System Patches.

Thank you
I installed it -
My pfSense file system is read-only. When I ssh to the machine and select shell, I am in the root directory, but obviously not a root user. Note that I bought a Stonegate firewall with pfSense 2.1.5 pre-installed.
I am new to pfSense but not new to ubuntu.
Any suggestion?–-------------------------
Update that may help other people : the file system was read-only so I had to remount it in the shell with rw enabled. Then I could get the new them and apply it.
Do not forget to reboot the machine afterwards so that the ro is in place again for added security. -

- pfSense is built on top of FreeBSD (not Ubuntu)
- It is all configured from the webGUI - so do not use the shell to change anything unless you know what and why you are changing it.
- "disk" can be switched between ro and rw and back with:
/etc/rc.conf_mount_rw
/etc/rc.conf_mount_ro
No need to find the right mount commands yourself, no need to reboot to put it back.
Diagnostics->nanoBSD also has a button to switch to RW then switch back to RO.
