Neither the Plymouth theme nor the login/lock theming was ever installed by a
restore, so a rebuilt box came up with stock distro branding.
bin/boot-branding.sh installs all three, and the desktop stage of
restore-linux.sh calls it. Each block self-skips when its greeter is absent or
already current, so it is cheap to re-run and works whether the box boots
lightdm or SDDM:
- Plymouth: a real copy under /usr/share/plymouth/themes, not a symlink into
the user home. The stock initramfs hook copies the theme path verbatim, so a
symlink into an unmounted home dangles at early boot and Plymouth drops to
text mode -- which is what assets/boot/initramfs-hook-my-custom-logo existed
to work around. With a real copy that hook is unnecessary.
- SDDM: the NexusOS-QML theme, selected via /etc/sddm.conf.d.
- slick-greeter: cannot lay out a custom login screen, so the logo and wordmark
are baked into assets/themes/greeter/greeter-background.svg and its own
centered login box lands underneath.
Main.qml now loads background.png instead of background.svg. QtSvg implements
SVG Tiny 1.2, which has no <pattern>, so the brushed-metal and machine-line
textures silently dropped out at runtime. librsvg renders them, so the SVG is
rasterized at 1920x1200 and committed alongside it; the regeneration command is
in the comment above the source: line.

Ported from downstream development. Four independent defects.
1. The memory dump was unrestorable. iterdump() serializes sqlite_vec virtual
tables as a raw INSERT INTO sqlite_master(...) followed by inserts into a
table the replaying connection cannot see, so replaying memory.db.sql died
on "no such table: vec_messages" and left ZERO tables behind. dump_db() now
loads the vec0 extension and filters the derived vec tables out of the
iterdump stream, matched on each statement's target table rather than as a
substring - a chat message whose text mentions vec_messages is an
INSERT INTO "messages" and has to survive.
compare() reported an unreadable dump as "diverged", which read like a real
verdict and made both guards refuse backup AND restore, locking the machine
out of syncing in either direction. Unreadable is now its own verdict.
_extra() compared updated_at against a "" default, but the column is REAL,
so the comparison raises TypeError on the first conversation the other side
lacks - exactly the case it counts. It tests membership first now. The
direction test declared updated_at TEXT, which is why this survived: the
test compared str to str while the field compared str to float.
2. The memory curator invented facts. It attributed the ASSISTANT's words to
the user, wrote absence claims read off the existing-memory block, and added
judgements ("favorite") the user never used. The prompt now scopes the USER
line as the only source, and two deterministic guards drop absence claims
and facts whose distinctive tokens appear nowhere in the user's message -
prompt wording alone did not hold on a 7B curator.
3. _best_vulkan_device scored Mesa's llvmpipe above an integrated GPU, pinning
Ollama to a software rasterizer advertising 31 GiB of "VRAM" - CPU inference
with Vulkan overhead on top. Software rasterizers are dropped.
4. Models.jsx compared catalog names to installed names literally, but Ollama
resolves a bare name to ":latest", so an untagged entry (nomic-embed-text)
read as missing forever and the Required gate never opened. Chatbot.jsx
fetched the model list once on mount although App keeps the page mounted
behind display:none, so a newly pulled model never appeared in the picker
until a full browser reload.

assets/gitnexus-logo.svg is branding for the Gitea instance that hosts this
project, not for NexusOS itself, so it does not belong in the public repo.
.gitignore already listed it, but gitignore does not apply to tracked files,
so it stayed until removed explicitly.
The README header already points at assets/n-small.png, so nothing references
it anymore.
