I've tested teamspeak on amd k6 2 and and k6 3 and it works.
It doesn't work on Pentium 1 233.
On amd athlon 800 the voice is too fast and the pitch too high.

I just noticed that the LFP fonts don't seem to work in fluxbox styles. I tried swapping in the iso8859 versions to see if that was the problem, but they still don't work. This was a test done in flux 0.9.14, which has changed its font handling, but i haven't tried in flux stable yet. The terminus and artwiz fonts work, so i have no idea what the problem would be at this time.

Opera852 installs and works well. After installation I set the homepage and logged into my google account and her on the forums. Shut down and re-booted and all configs were save. Also no error emssages or unusual things happening during surfing. Success!

Great going...

I tried installing icewm.uci and it was able to mount correctly but when rebooting I received the following error message:

/opt/icewm/user.tar.gz: Cannot open: No such file or directory

Error is not recoverable: exiting now

Is there anything I could have missed?

There is no user.tar.gz in icewm.uci. I receive the same message from other uci packages that also do not have the user file.

It looks like /etc/init.d/dsl-config tries to install the user file without first checking to see if it exists.

Quote (mikshaw @ Mar. 28 2006,17:41)

The "U" in UCI means an embedded user.tar.gz.
Recall the history of DSL:
First I made the .ci extension and there was a separate user.tar.gz file that also had to be loaded.
Then I extended the definition to UCI when the user.tar.gz was contained inside the ci.

Posted by mikshaw on Mar. 30 2006,05:11

Does that explain the tar error, though? I was making an assumption, but i think it's correct. If it's caused by something in my UCI instead, i should look into it further.

Mozilla Seamonkey suite.

mozilla seamonkey seems to need gtk libs. Tried to get it going with gtk0705.dsl but this 233mhz pc finally got stuck and I had to reset.

I've been using the amsn0.95-gtk.dsl from jls legalize and it works great. Eliminated a couple of bugs that were in amsn 0.94. I haven't tried setting up a webcam yet though.

terminus_font.tar.gz

works well.
