Some observations on using backup/restore... (DSLpanel - fluxbox system
In the apps section on the board... I mentioned that I could not save my settings - the machine would just sit there and...
That was with DSL... 2.0.1 seemed to be the fix (running live cd)
Some notes on what it doesn't save: external downloads - in my case this was open office 2.0 - .uci - saving that to my HD - and clicking on it after I have booted - brings it right back to the desktop - and in the fluxbox menu...
sometimes the wallpaper isn't saved - nor a device mount (in my case hda3 - I suppose the mtab could be moved - maybe)
Firefox settings WERE saved (installed extensions) and recent docs in Beaver, settings in emelfm..
------- I'm fairly new to Linux... I've 'test drove' Mepis, Ubuntu, Knoppix, RedHat.. Gentoo... and I keep returning to DSL... ------- TM
