Release Candidates :: DSL v4.3 RC2



lucky13: minimal tabs, 2-4 using the same pages.  It wasn't extensive or thorough though.  And I think I saw that page as well, but I only used 586 and O2 iirc.

I guess we'll wait patiently for the new version then :)

In the ndiswrapper window why don't u put a check box that allows to save the configuration in the system, so upon next reboot I have a working internet connection?

I don't think that the md5sum control, after a downloaded extension, using the mydsl browser, is working properly.
Also, why the downloaded extension finishes in home instead in the extension folder?

While M$ win autorecognize the mouse in DSL this doesn't happen.

My cd writer is not recognized, infact the command
cdrecord -scanbus
gives an error.

What should it be doing? The download/installation is done with mydsl-load, just as it always has been.  As far as the browser is concerned, it merely checks to see if mydsl-load succeeded.  Maybe it doesn't receive the appropriate return code....that bit might be best left to mydsl-install.

I guess I I thought mydsl-wget would automatically download to the directory listed in /opt/.mydsl_dir. It looks like I was wrong.  Since I don't download extensions to that directory, I never noticed something was wrong...I only tested to make sure the extensions would download and install, and didn't think about persistence.
That'll be fixed soon, thanks.

On a side note, I just noticed that mydsl-wget in DSL 4.2.3 still tries to use /var/tmp

I just saw the check problem....funny I never saw that before.
It's as I suspected, though, apparently not receiving the proper exit status from the mydsl process.
I was hoping to provide a visual clue about whether or not the installation succeeded, but I guess I'll have to find another way.

Also fixed the other issue by changing to the directory listed in /opt/.mydsl_dir
Updated script in the "mydsl info parser" programming thread.
