Thanks for this new cut John! Was just waiting for something to sink my teeth in. Have made some initial testings with the larger rc1 iso both in VMware Workstation and Qemu. All from Windows 11 as host. First I'll mention a "typo" kind of thing. Booting in Qemu it says "Damn Small Linux Alpha" not RC1 in other words. This is just a cosmetic issue. In Qemu the rc1 works just like the alpha. I get a full 1920x1080 resolution but no sound. In VMware it boots fast also in normal boot. What I can't understand though is that I just get a 800x600 resolution in normal boot. Booting from "safe" I get 1024x768. The alpha2 gave me 1280x768 in "safe" mode. Strange, isn't it? From inside DSL I can change the resolution but then I get a tiled background (4 images or so and Conky in the middle). I'll give it some more testing to see what happens.

Hi again John! This is getting kind of weird. When using the smaller iso I get a resolution of 1280x768 as with the second alpha. And not just that. I allocated 8 GB of RAM just to test the resolution again. It didn't change using the larger iso. Back to the smaller rc1 I allocated 8 GB of RAM and I got the 1280x768 resolution but it was kind of unstable Conky was flickering. Now I had installed, applied the file restore and updated. So I changed the amount of RAM to 2GB and that stabilized the whole thing. Kind of weird. I'm typing this using Firefox in rc1 and not even the fan starts. Kind of backwards but if it works Good I don't mind. If I find something else worth mentioning I'll post it.
