I got Blurfish to work. Sox installed, but I didn't know what to do with it. I'm assuming command line use only for processing sound files.
I can't remember if I mentioned that I got the prev. release of amsn.dsl to work. The one from 8/03/04.
Looks like I need to remaster again to get the new stuff. I was going to test Quake on the laptop over the weekend, but I realized I was having ram problems.
Couple of notes for the MyDSL Extensions pages.
1) You may want to make a not in the Freebirth.dsl .info page that sound must be working before loading this .dsl file. Same goes for barrage, linpsk, sweep and sox.
2) You may want to make it clear in the .info pages that linpsk, twlog, xastir are all Ham Radio apps. Some say something in the description on the extensions page, but you might want it clear both there and in teh .info file. This could save bandwidth of people loading it to see what the heck it is and then realizing they can't or wouldn't ever use it. Just a thought.
3)The category idea would be great and like you said, put only a single letter in there for sort with a key at the top of the page. That way we could get all the games, sound apps, utilities, themes together. Probably better to do this now before the page gets too huge.
4) Certain apps that run from the command line only (CLI), you might want to make that clear in the docs. This will save some questions in the forums and we could just point people to the .info page or to the original notice of the package's creation.
5) For certain apps like Quake 2 that require several steps to get them to work, such as copying .pak files and changing permissions, include the specific directions needed. Again to reduce forum questions and have a common, easy to find place to point.
Thanks for removing the xscreensaver app from the stable area as it was fubar.
I'm off to remaster again. Fun, fun, fun.
