Posting about something which no-one elsehas had a problem with, usually means I've done
something silly.
Here goes, anyway.
I dl'd the "current" file from Ibiblio and renamed it
as an iso, 'cos I can't dl iso's at work.
Sodding I.T dept.
Home means dial-up.
MD5summed it, all was well.
Burnt iso with cdrecord, copied /KNOPPIX/knoppix
to frugal install.
Also got newest dsl-dpkg.dsl and gnu-utils.dsl.
All very good.
But on loading some .dsl packages (like scite, gimp 1-2, xchat),
using Emelfm and myDSL button, the myDSL submenu is not
updated with the new package name.
I know some packages don't have a menu entry anyway.
These entries are in /ramdisk/var/tmp/mydsl.menu/-
but they don't make it to ~/.fluxbox/menu.
I don't understand the mechanism of the menu update
very well.....
In a couple of days, I'll download the syslinux version proper,
I want a copy of it anyway, and see if it's different.
Wonder if anyone else has seen this-
or can shed a little light on how it should work.
