myDSL Extensions (deprecated) :: New Extensions in Testing - 11/2004

kent, I just tried nvu, and it crashes when you go to open a file.

gtk2-0705 is installed, as was gnu-utils, running liveCD v1.5 toram on an XP2400+ with 512MB RAM.

It lauches fine, but on hitting either the "open" button or doing the same through the menu, it simply disappears, no warning, no feedback.

Hmm...
I just booted a fresh DSL 1.5 LiveCD, added gnu-utils.dsl, added gtk-0705.dsl,
ran "Update-to-GTK2" from the MyDSL menu, added nvu-gtk2-0.50.dsl,
then ran it. Opens up my /opt/monkey/htdocs/index.html just fine,
from both "File,Open" , or the "open" button ..

Can you duplicate my exact steps, and see if yours crashes still?
Don't load any other extensions at boottime or mydsl..

Boot with " dsl dma toram base norestore "
This will give you a clean, pristine bootup to start from,
regardless of whether you have a mydsl area, or a backup.tar.gz lying around.
