Release Candidates :: DSL-2.0RC1



Same thing happens here.  I thought it was my fluxbox extension, but switching back to the default didn't help.  I followed the process as close as I could, and what i see is that /tmp/menu.tmp is being properly built but is not being copied to /home/dsl/.fluxbox/

Couple of things off the top of my head that need to be specificly tested by the userbase.

1. USB 2.0 support with the install to usb pendrive scripts
2. play with the irc:// and mailto: stuff in firefox
3. test LOTS of extensions! Update the ones that need to be updated! MyDSL extensions are provided by the community! It's up to you guys to keep them up to date!


Juanito,

1, 3, and probably 4 are caused by Intel graphics chipsets generally sucking in anything other than Winsuck.

block-major-2 is the floppy drive module.

modprobe b44 will get your nic working, and the ALPS touchpad driver is quite large, and needs Xfree86 anyway.

-J.P.

FWIW I have a compaq EVO SF577 with i845 chipset. There is 855resolution ..deb package in Debian which enhances the graphic settings for this chipset and it works like a charm now  :D  still don't have 1152x864 thought :( .  

BTW because of the problems I had I installed  win2k without Service pack and it needed the special drivers from HP to make it functioning.

jacques, belgium :D

Salut Jacques - could you give a few more details for the 855 deb package so I can download it? How do you set things up so the 855 module installs in DSL the next time you boot?
not sure if this is 2.0 specific but the memory applet on the desktop reports different values than the "free" command, in my case: %62 vs %86.
Ref Mikshaw's comment - the myDSL menu does not appear booting from USB either.

I found that the file .mydsl_dir contained the line "/mnt/sdb1", changing it to "/mnt/sda1" did not bring the myDSL menu back on reboot.
