I hv been using Knoppix for awhile.

I have tried to substitute xchat/gaim with ayttm and naim when using DSL/mydsl but found myself keep reverting back to Knoppix to use xchat/gaim. Is it easy to create mydsl files for xchat/gaim and put it in depository for ppl like me?

while you are at it , can you throw in synaptic.dsl ?

How about "anydvdplayer".dsl ?

Btw, firefox.dsl rocks. better than mozilla and konqueror.
sylpheed, vncviewer are great.
samba.dsl is great

dillo and glinks are useless.

thanks

Ok what is it about gaim that you use? MSN, Yahoo, Aim, All of the above. Just wondering.

DVD is covered by XINE (unless you hate that player)
look at http://damnsmalllinux.org/cgi-bin....16;t=24
Encrypted Dvd might not but this picture makes me think differently.

If you install the dpkg.dsl and update the package list with your fav mirror synaptic should be there in the mirror.
Just execute:

Code Sample

apt-get install synaptic

And you should be good to go there.

I will work on the xchat and gaim (maybe depending on time). Hmm something to do this summer.

People laugh because I have linux on a cd with me.

I laugh as the pay me for using that disk to recover their precious windows.

Hey subarus,
Head over to http://arthur.ph.man.ac.uk/~pc/dslt.html and get the Xchat. I will keep strugling on the gaim and see if it will come up working.

I know! I tried it but gotten this msg:
xchat: error while loading shared lib: libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0

thanks for helping me out.
btw I can do without gaim.. i can get by with ayttm
but i need xchat because i hate setting up the server:port everything i need to login. with xchat, all the server information is there for me to just click.

Opps. I built that package with a bunch of dependencies already in place and did not include them in the package. Pick up the new xchat.doc and rename it from .doc to .dsl. If someone could mirror that new one.

The new one is deamed rc1 :;):

. I will deam it the final and ask for it to go into the respository if no problems are found. Sorry about the screw up.
