X and Fluxbox :: Live DSL CD
Dear all,
I have tried all screen resolutions that appear on the live CD when it boots but none of them have worked. Being a good n00b I searched the forums and found that after booting up normally I needed to do
Ctrl-Alt-Backspace
and then type:
to specify the right resolution of my screen 1024x768 with H: 68.6 K and V: 85 Hz
I haven't tried that just yet but I will do so soon! 
The embedded DSL works very well and I just learned the trick Ctrl-Alt-F to maximize the screen 
My goal is to learn how to boot from a live CD [ I was able to do it before but now, it just doesn't like me ]
Regards,

Hey,
It is me again you all I managed to run xsetup.sh and configure the resolution to what I needed 1024x768. Problem is, it didn't improve anything that much and the colors are still a mess. What is dpi (dot pitch? I am reading my monitor's manual)? I also adjusted the depth to 32 per the manual... How can I improve the resolution and coloring of my live CD? I need to work on this for when I start using the USB stick. Now, I will do a search on the disappearing icons problem 
Kind regards,
-D-
The resolution problem has been solved! Weeeee!
I just tried and tried and tried until I pressed F3 and configured the settings for my screen. Now, all looked pretty and I was truly happy but when connecting to the internet by dial-up none of the webpages opened! That is, the modem was detected, it dialed up but no webpages 
No yahoo, no dsl, no nothing...
I shall continue trying!
