Release Candidates :: DSL v3.1 RC1

Look in /KNOPPIX/etc/skel for all the 'original' files as they would be loaded into the /home/dsl directory prior to your backup overwriting them during the boot process. Copy the files you need from there to their corresponding location in you /home/dsl directory.

Anything that would be found in /home/dsl when you first boot a fresh DSL system, with no backup, can also be found in /etc/skel. You can copy the files from there.

Be aware, though, that /etc/skel/.fluxbox (and two or three other files in skel) cannot be accessed by regular users, since it is owned by root and its permissions are set so it can be entered only by its owner. So in order to copy .fluxbox/menu you will need to copy it as root and then give ownership of it to dsl.

Strange thing has been happening under 3.1RC1.....

I use ndiswrapper for my Linksys WPC54G PCMCIA card. As I am on the fringe of the network, regardless of what OS I run, I have to reconnect from time to time.

Under 3.01 and prior, it works great. Connects back up within a few seconds. However, under 3.1RC1, the script on the DSL Control Panel locks up, and takes most of the system with it.

Anyone else have this problem? Funny thing is, I am typing this under DSL-N RC4 and there isn't the same problem.....

Either way, DSL still rocks!

Try booting dsl-3.1RC1 with the legacy boot option and see if that helps. Let us know.

It did the trick..... d'oh! Guess I won't be using the UNC's yet......

Thank you very much! I appreciate the help!
