Hey guyses and goils, I made a new dsl extension and emailed it to extensions@damnsmalllinux.org, but then I figured that maybe I should get a few people to test it out and look over it for me (since it is my first .dsl). The extension is a package called < Pogo >. It is "a speedy, highly extensible, skinnable, and user-configurable program launcher and application front-end for X11."
I would be really greatful if a couple of you could test it out and look it over for me. The extension is located at:
< pogo-3.0.dsl >
Thanks guyses and goils,

There's no menu item to start it.[exec] (Pogo) {pogo}
It looks interesting, although it runs rather slow for me.

There should be a pogo 800x600 and pogo 1024x768 under the mydsl menu. I put them in /var/tmp/mydsl.menu/pogo. Is this not the standard place?

Change your /mydsl.menu dir and menu files to dsl.staff permissions and you'll be good. Those darn permissions will get you every time!!

Re-up'd with (hopefully) correct permissions.

Haven't tried it yet, but there's one thing that might be a cause for concern. Your Imlib file is a symlink to /KNOPPIX/usr/lib/Imlib.so.1. I can't say for sure, but it seems like it might cause trouble for people running a harddrive install. It might be better to have the symlink point to /usr/lib/Imlib.so.1 instead. That's a link to a link in liveCD/frugal, but it will work the same.
