Improves the vaapi_select_and_apply function to automatically select the VAAPI device when only one is detected, bypassing the whiptail selection dialog. This streamlines the user experience by reducing unnecessary prompts.
Introduces the _is_gpu_app function to check if an app benefits from GPU passthrough, and updates the GPU app list to use lowercase names for consistency. The select_hw_passthrough function now only proceeds for GPU apps or when CTTYPE is 0.
Improves the select_hw_passthrough function to automatically select the available GPU passthrough option if only one is detected, instead of prompting the user. This streamlines the user experience when only a single GPU type is present.
Replaces direct USB and GPU passthrough configuration in build.func with a unified select_hw_passthrough function. Refactors passthrough.func to add interactive selection for VAAPI and NVIDIA devices, streamlines device detection, and updates userland installation functions for both VAAPI and NVIDIA. Cleans up and simplifies device mapping and group ID logic.
The VAAPI and NVIDIA setup functions are now called directly in debian-install.sh instead of within the LXC container customization block in build.func. The related code in build.func has been commented out to avoid duplicate execution.
Consolidates and simplifies VAAPI and NVIDIA passthrough logic by introducing unified GPU app detection and moving userland package installation into dedicated *_inside_setup functions. Updates build.func to use new function names and ensures setup is only performed for relevant apps and non-Alpine containers. Improves maintainability and clarity of passthrough.func.
Added direct installation of VAAPI and NVIDIA drivers inside LXC containers during setup, removing reliance on custom in-container scripts. The process now ensures required packages are installed and user permissions are set, improving automation and compatibility for supported distributions.
Introduces passthrough.func, a Bash script to manage host-side passthrough configuration for VAAPI and NVIDIA devices in LXC containers. The script provides functions for USB, VAAPI, and NVIDIA device passthrough, including device selection dialogs, configuration file updates, and compatibility handling for privileged and unprivileged containers.
Replaces the inlined VAAPI passthrough logic in misc/build.func with calls to an external passthrough.func script, streamlining and centralizing hardware passthrough handling. Adds a new misc/passthrough.func file and introduces a hwaccel_setup_in_ct helper in misc/tools.func for hardware acceleration setup inside containers.
Replaces legacy VAAPI device detection and selection with a modular, more robust approach. Adds helpers for group ID resolution, device deduplication, and dynamic whiptail dialog sizing. Improves user prompts, error handling, and fallback logic for both privileged and unprivileged containers. The new implementation is more maintainable and user-friendly.
Refactors the LXC container network initialization to simplify IP wait logic, reduce gateway ping attempts from 20 to 10, and provide clearer status messages. Now warns instead of failing if the gateway is unreachable but the container has an IP, improving robustness in network checks.
Refactors the LXC network wait loop to use a for-loop with up to 20 attempts, providing clearer warnings and early exits when network and DNS are ready. Adds more robust handling for DNS failures by applying a fallback resolv.conf only after repeated failures, improving reliability and user feedback during container setup.
Improves readability and flexibility by building the NET_STRING variable incrementally, using parameter expansion to include only set values for MAC, GATE, VLAN, and MTU. This change makes the network configuration more robust and easier to maintain.
Replaces all occurrences of the 'init_error_traps' function with 'catch_errors' across container and install scripts for consistency in error handling. Also adjusts indentation and formatting in some scripts for improved readability.
Introduces a CLEAN_INSTALL environment variable to optionally remove all files in the target directory before extracting a GitHub release. This ensures a clean deployment when required.
Updated the whiptail menu in the install_script function to enhance usability. Changes include adjusting the backtitle, adding --fb and --notags options, updating the menu prompt with navigation instructions, and increasing the menu width for better display.
Changed menu titles to reference 'Community-Scripts' instead of generic 'SETTINGS' and adjusted menu width from 60 to 40 in install_script for improved clarity and UI consistency.
Simplifies the install_script function by replacing the PRESET environment variable logic with direct CLI argument support for preset selection. Updates the whiptail menu options, streamlines case handling, and improves error handling for invalid options. This refactor makes the script interface more intuitive and reduces code complexity.
