anyone have it working?

telltom,

I posted a patch here yesterday.

When you post a bug about Slacko it might be better to post in this thread for 2 reasons.

1) it may help others with the same problem who didn't see your post.

2) if I did not see your post at the time I did (not long after you posted) it may have got accidentally ignored

Hope the solution resolves your issue.

approximately the same as the monitor refresh rate.

Everything is working well, just waiting for the 5.3.1.02 version

Is it soup yet?

bigpup and Brown Mouse,

I'll clear something up at this point.

An audio CD can't be mounted as it has NO filesystem per sé. This is why Pmount will not mount one.

The default run action in Slacko for an audio cd in order is, defaultcdplayer, and if that doesn't exist defaultmediaplayer. In Slacko's case the default CD player is pmusic -c . You can change this by editing /usr/local/bin/defaultcdplayer to point to any CD capable media player or delete it and it will point to gnome-mplayer (which in my opinion is not the best for CDs). Xine is not bad (in PPM).

It does work as I am playing a CD right now on my old laptop.

Hi Mick,

Fresh manual frugal installation on an ext4 partition using a 4fs save file created with shinobar's pupsaveconfig. All my normal extra software works properly, however there is a minor problem. Shutdown does not work, although Ctrl>Alt>Backspace will perform the reboot or other operation that was selected using the Shutdown menu.

This may be a problem with just my hardware, but it appears to be a problem using shinobar's 4fs save file. I tried a new savefile with same apps except for pupsaveconfig and upon shutdown selected a 3fs save file. It now responds properly to Shutdown selections.

Regards,
Jim

Not a bug, just Chromium 17 for Slacko

ftp://distro.ibiblio.org/puppylinux/pet_packages-slacko/chromium-17.0.945.0-slacko.pet

Chromium is the Open Source developmental basis of Google Chrome and Srware Iron. Chromium runs 2 or 3 versions ahead of those other two.

I installed Opera from Slickpet. I don't like it, but I can't see any way to UNinstall it. How do I do that??
