I have an issue with firefox-1.5.uci that may be obvious, but it's not to me. I have downloaded it and saved it in my persistent myDSL directory. When I boot, the system indicates that it is included with the other myDSL apps. However, I cannot run it as the link on the desktop (not surprisingly) is for the included version of Firefox, and I cannot find it to run elsewhere. All other myDSL apps have icons on the desktop, but not this one.
Like I said, it might be obvious, but it isn't to me :P
EDIT: damn, I open my mouth and then I solve it *blush* (how often do I do this during the course of a day?). For anybody else having an issue with this - just look in the /opt/ folder Sorry, I don't use icons so I made it without an icon. All the extensions I make you'll need to access them from the fluxbox menu. You don't have to go to the opt directory to open it up just right click on the desktop and select the app from the mydsl menu.opengl-libs.dsl also works with my ZSNES 1.42 extension. No need for xfree86.captainpotato: Did you look in the menu under "MyDSL"? *.tar.gz and *.uci mydsl extensions are installed into /opt/program_name, not in the standard program locations. This is to allow installation without affecting the base system. The downside is that the firefox uci executable is most likely /opt/firefox/bin/firefox, or something similar, which is not in your path.
If there isn't a menu item or icon, you'll need to do one of the following in order to run it (I'm assuming the executable is /opt/firefox/bin/firefox):
1) Use the full path to the executable. 2) cd into /opt/firefox/bin/ and start it from there. 3) Create a symlink to the executable, placed in a directory in your PATH: ln -s /opt/firefox/bin/firefox /somedirectory 4) Add /opt/firefox/bin to the beginning of your PATH variable: PATH="/opt/firefox/bin:$PATH" 5) Create an alias of the full path to the executable: alias firefox=/opt/firefox/bin/firefox
Number 3 can be tricky when you have 2 executables with the same name...the one found first in $PATH will be the one used.RE: WINE, I can't get it to setup, I'm running a frugal of 2.1b with persistent /home and /opt, the fluxbox menu options don't bring anything up, and when going to the directory via commandline and running winecfg, I can't figure out how to set the C drive, or what exactly it should be set to? Everything says it can't find c:\windows... Any tips on this should probably be added to the info file?Next Page...
