fischli75, Since you stated that it worked in the past, I will avoid my concerns with your 'toram' and 'noswap' options. There was a thread about certain extensions that contained empty base directories that caused havoc with new(er) versions of DSL. But by original standards these base directories should not be in the extensions. Please let me know precisely which extensions are causing you grief, not just the generic name, openoffice. Since extensions are created by the community, this will be a process to find problematic extensions.

roberts,
i use the following extensions in current DSL3.1 with myDSL-Browser without problems:
skype 1.2.0.18
(http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/damnsmall/mydsl/net/skype-1.2.0.18.dsl)
Openoffice 1.1
(http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/damnsmall/mydsl/apps/openoffice.tar.gz)

In 3.2rc1 and 3.2rc2 is it not possible.

fischli75, Thanks for the details. It appears that it was skype that was not in compliance. I have fixed skype and have reposted it.  I noted the change in the info file. Both of these extensions now load without issue for me.
