I'm looking for the DSL source code, including the custom app suchs as the Control Panel. I want to check why the Wireless Configuration doesn't work or at least HOW it works.

I think a lot of the custom stuff is written in LUA so the file name would be something.lua Check in /usr/local/bin

To see what's being run when you click on a menu item look in /home/dsl/.fluxbox/menu

======== Note =========
The DSL Forum Search default is 'OR'
If you search for "cat dog" you will get all "cat" posts and all "dog" posts.
If you search for "cat AND dog" you will only find results that contain BOTH "cat" and "dog"
Add '*' for wildcards, " cat* and dog* "

*ALL* of the DSL-specific stuff is human-readable script, whether it be Lua or Perl or Bash. Much of it is also in /etc/init.d or /usr/sbin.
Everything else, as far as I know, is built from either unmodified code or taken directly from Knoppix. I'm not totally sure about this last statement.

I have modified xtdesk source to allow easy configuration of single or double click. I have also modified the source of jwm, actually backported some code from a later version of jwm, to provide right click menus that we are all so familiar with. All of my other stuff is bash or lua. Me, no perl, unless forced!
