I may have found a small error. Multiple boot codes seem to not work (i.e. "fb800x600 dsl 2") I checked DSL 2.0RC2 and it worked then, but doesn't seem to work in 2.0.I hope this is the right place to post! I have a frugal install. After upgrading from 1.5 to 2 ( i replaced boot and knoppix folders) my desktop was messed up, by copying accros the files from a cd boot to the persistent home and following the advice of a post on here about copying certain files (many thanks!), i got that sorted. But what I really wanted to try was jwm. I copied accros the .jwmrc file, but when i select jwm from the menu, fluxbox opens up again??? I have not yet tried editing grub to include "dsl iforgotwhatgoeshere=jwm", but i would guess this wont help.
Any advice??Thanks!!matrulesok, check that you have an updated .xinitrc Copy from /etc/skel/.xinitrc to /home/dsl/.xinitrcSince upgrading to dsl 2.0 I have been experiencing random lock ups on my laptop. The laptop is a IBM Thinkpad iSeries 1330 Type: 1171-330. The lock ups seem to be random and when it happens the system becomes completely unresponsive and needs to be powered down. When upgrading I copied over the KNOPPIX file, linux24 and minirt24.gz files. I than copied over the files mentioned earlier in this thread along with .xinitrc and added .jwmrc to the /home/dsl directory. I am not sure what I might have done to cause this trouble as I did not run into this trouble at all while running 1.5. Any help would be appreciated.

thanks again roberts - this worked (the desktop background didnt load, but a bit of googling solved that ;) ) - could you add this file to your original list of things to copy over - it will help any others that are as stupid as me
