Should not be using emelfm.
It has already been established that using emelfm will cause problems. You should do the upgrade as I posted eariler.

3. Moved MyDSL local extensions from emelfm to MyDSL desktop icon (mydslPanel.lua)

If you have been testing v3.0 and/or have a backup then you should upgrade the following:

cp /etc/skel/.emelfm/buttons /home/dsl/.emelfm/.
cp /etc/skel/.emelfm/filetypes /home/dsl/.emelfm/.

Also, as I posted eariler, there is no unloading of unc type extensions. unc extensions are not self contained as uci types are.

To try to unload a unc is like to trying to remove a .dsl. Other apps or precesses could be using the now overlayed resources as provided by the unc.

Hello to this group...

I'm trying to get DSL (3.0RC2) working on a USB pendrive.. I find
that upon booting (boots just fine, except for complaints during
load about modprobe not being able to find modules for 2.4.31!
Instead, lib/modules/2.4.26 exists. You are all probably aware of
this, but I couldn't find a discussion of a fix in the "search"
facility...

I ran into the same problem in a DSL2.4 experiment a day or so
ago... Both these problems are on an older Toshiba laptop
which generally runs "zipslack" just fine, as well as older
DSL's!!

Can anyone recommend a fix??

My thanks in advance.

larry

[Am also having some n00b issues using this board - pls excuse
my fuimble fingers..]

You have a mismatch of KNOPPIX image file and boot files.
You need to select upgrade on the pendrive installs in order to insure matching files sets are installed.

Hello group, I like 3.0RC2!!! XFree86.unc works (with my xf86config.unc even with German kb), and everything else. I can't imagine anyone really needs more Linux! Thanks!

Is this why "Operation not permitted" shows up on shutdown for each unc? Or is this due to my persistent /opt?

Announcing a new home for our .unc type extensions

I built some unc's using your HowTo (e.g. mozilla-tbird, xf86config), I can post them if you tell me where. (Maybe I will write dsl2unc.sh)

Why does Opera not have an upper window-bar?
And my final suggestion for 3.0: write "successfully (un)mounted" with double c

"Operation not permitted" can safely be ignored.
Perhaps I will remove it from the final release.

Thanks for pointing out the typo.

I think I may have messed up on Opera852.unc share directory.
I only made a few sample unc's to show the technique.
I always try to stay focused on the infrastructure of DSL.
Like to see the community contribute by packaging extensions.

You can email your extensions to extensions@damnsmalllinux.org
