Quote | I still can't get the fluxbox-0.9.11 to works. I'm installing the dsl on my hdd and can anyone please kindly give me the complete instruction to update it to fluxbox-0.9.11? I'm going to give it a fresh copy since it is quite fast to install. |
I have to say that since you are using a harddrive install there may have been changes to your system of which we aren't aware, so I'll just give the instructions for installing on a liveCD. 1) Read the info file. 2) Install the package using the mydsl system. You could use the click and load system, or type 'mydsl-load /path/to/fluxbox-0.9.11', or browse to the extension with emelfm, select the file, and press the myDSL button. The program should have been automatically installed into /opt/fluxbox-0.9.11/. 3) Open up /home/dsl/.xinitrc in a text editor. 4) Change the line 'fluxbox' to '/opt/fluxbox-0.9.11/bin/fluxbox' and save the file. If you are using the Nvidia extension you will need to add another line to this file, just before the fluxbox line: export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/usr/X11R6/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH" There is only ONE space in that line. Save the file. 5) Exit the window manager, and then type 'startx'.
If this process doesn't work, then something unusual has apparently happened to your system.
