Is it just me or do all the repository .DSL themes still not work with DSL. v0.93? Some of these were great and were a plus to the project before V0.90 or whenever there was that makeover. They just refuse to load properly since. Before DSL v1.0 appears, it would be nice to have these working and available again.

maybe a dumb question, but did you re-download the themes? If they are being extracted into /home/damnsmall then they aren't going to work.

I have had to write scripts that rebuilds all the extensions from a single script at least three times over the last several releases. These changes have been necessary in order to achive our design goals for 1.0. I always work with Ke4nt1 to try to be sure that there is minimial impact to the users and try to accomodate prior releases of DSL.

The change that most impacted users was the switch from user damnsmall to dsl.

If however you experience a broken extension, first try to download the latest one directly from the ibiblio library. You can be sure that the most current extensions will be on ibiblio. If you still have a problem then post and help will be forthcomming.

False alarm! Roberts / mikshaw - sorry. I redownloaded all the updated .dsls i use but must have forgotten about the themes. Latest ones work - normal service is resumed.

False alarm, Roberts / Mikshaw - sorry! I thought I had redownloaded the updated versions of all my regular .dsls a while ago - must have forgotten the themes. Updated themes work fine. Normal service is resumed.
