3. Moved MyDSL local extensions from emelfm to MyDSL desktop icon (mydslPanel.lua)
2. New mountable MyDSL extension type unc with automatic branch management.
3. Adjust Getting Started/Dillo screen to support booting 640x480

Hmm, I love the new myDSL load in myDSL browser.

Okay i'm still having problems, after using the DSL browser to download fluxbox1.14.uci(also tried conky.uci) it says i need to manually mnt. so i open emelfm to go to /tmp so i can mount it but if you click on /tmp it locks emelfm up. Tried to load from the new MyDSL load same thing just sits there. I then used terminal to cd to /tmp once i hit> ls enter, lock up.

Okay, i tried down loading it to /dsl/ and loading with the MyDSL load
and get the same message. here's a pic from xpaint->

But i'm glad to report i had no problems loading .dsl's from my usb pen with the new mydsl load.

to be continued...

I installed rox to try and look at /tmp and rox shows /tmp as a mounted file, is it suppose to be mounted?

Nice work on this RC - The new MyDSL extension loader seems to have alleviated the problems with Emelfm and other parts of the system "locking up".  I have tried out a few extensions I have created, XFree86.unc - GTK-0705.unc, and they seem to work well.

Suggestions -

Modify the UCI Tool to show both uci's and unc's that are mounted.

Have MyDSL extension loader open in the last viewed directory (Okay, I am just to lazy to click through directories - :) )

P.S.  A short guide on "properly" creating unc's would be helpful, I think I am doing these right, but want to be sure.
