  Mouse settings won't open
Posted by: 8bitBoid - 03-15-2025, 01:34 PM - Forum: User Feedback - Replies (3)

Hi there. Just getting started and things are going OK so far - but one issue is the mouse settings won't open. Everything else works OK.

I'm using an EeePC and the trackpad mouse is super slow on the current settings. I can plug in a mouse and an external mouse is much faster, but I'd like to use the trackpad most of the time. Is there a way to use terminal perhaps? Thanks!

  DSL vs. AntiX?
Posted by: DSL_Rich - 02-25-2025, 10:53 PM - Forum: User Feedback - Replies (2)

Hi, ran DSL on several systems WAY back, fantastic.

Just came across this reboot via youtube Action Retro channel and thought I'd check it out since I have way too many old and older computers still around.

My question is, since this relies a lot on AntiX (yes?), what's the advantage of this vs. AntiX?   Is it mainly/only so it'll fit on a CD, vs. a DVD?

Thank you.
Rich

Hi fellows,

Is it possible to have a screensaver other than a blank screen? 
I have a HD DSL installation.

Thanks

Hi,
I am trying to install DSL in a Dell Inspiron 2600 but during the booting process I got the message : "graphics initialization failed error setting up gfxboot"

I continued choosing live from the menu but after awhile the process never finished.
raphics initialization failed error

  Request for re-login on launching terminal or manage packages
Posted by: shadowwizard - 01-31-2025, 08:14 PM - Forum: Help Section - No Replies

After installing DSL2024 on to a USB key, whenever I launch terminal, or even manage packages, the screen goes black, there is some messages that disappear to fast to see, then them I am told I need to log in (And I can press F1 to change my session type).  Logging in starts the cycle over again.  No windows have opened, if I open terminal again, I get a black screen with writing that is disappears too fast to see, prompted to log in again, etc.

  Customize DSL Live Image
Posted by: MikeyCarter - 01-30-2025, 06:02 PM - Forum: Help Section - Replies (1)

Trying to build a 32 bit image to gather hardware information on  some older machines.   Thinking of using DSL as the base, is there instructions somewhere on how to customize the live image?

  Cannot install - another post
Posted by: Marcel - 01-25-2025, 03:47 PM - Forum: Help Section - Replies (3)

Hi

 I try to find reference on how to make the project to boot, but as i only see 4 other post about the same topic and no solution.. i try again.
 For 2 pentium pc  and one with 4 core, it is not possible to boot via : netboot : as it result in no boot partition present.  As one of the pc cannot even boot on usb.  For the other one: is the final version or rc8 will have a proper boot partition ?

As you cannot write with etcher : as boot partition missing in order to burn to usb. And with Rufus, it do download 2 extra file, but end up as not being able to boot.
 Put both rc7 and rc6 version on the easy ventoy live os boot and : all 4 cannot boot.
So a last try to check this project that look quite good... 

Thanks in advance
