Posting from the last version of 5x13. Everything working well. It had no problem accepting the SaveFile from prior 5x13. Just added a couple of fine touches: wbar & changed face of xonclock. Thanks again pemasu. And thanks Billtoo & pemasu for instructions regarding ati-radeon driver.

pemasu are you sure the MD5SUM txt file is correct for the latest upload of 5x13?

Smokey01. The md5sum is same when I md5sum manually the iso in my sandbox3 build folder, the md5sum.txt in repo and also when I download the uploaded iso. As checked all produces the same result:

93882e00a531233a7682e85db4f887f3 squeeze-5.X.13-SCSI.iso

When I made my first woof build... Snow Puppy. The very first earliest versions did have Songbird as preinstalled app. The reason for this was that I wanted to offer Shoutcast capable player. Then Songbird losed it Shoutcast plugin feature, because the plugin stopped to work...and nobody updated it.

Yesterday Asterisk announced the recent Songbird version and I tested it...with Shoutcast and Last FM plugin (albumart and scroppler enabled) and it did work.

5x13 working well here - also using about 20 mb less ram for me that earlier Exprimo versions. Smile

Couple of niggles:
fonts in Opera web browser - rolled back /etc/fonts to earlier version work for me.
Am unable to record radio streams with mplayer - not sure what is causing this?

My usual tweeks - openbox, tint2 etc

/etc/fonts/local.conf has been the difficult piece. I have changed it back and forth. Not sure anymore what is the best settings in it.

I have changed the mplayer to mplayer2. I am afraid that can be the reason. I would like to have hands in good ./configure options for mplayer2.

I probably am missing a setting somewhere ...

Why is it that a wireless mouse times-out when not used for several minutes?

I have to lift it and click the center button to reactivate.

It is a Belkin F5L075-USB

Thanks!

I suppose it is kernel based feature. Probably the usb auto suspending is ticked in kernel options. I usually enable it.
So...when there is no activity...the usb device will be sent to autosuspend. At least I know kernel has this option.

Probably that can be disabled with appropriate command or boot time kernel parameter. I am in no need of it....so I wont immediately try to find solution...but I believe the net could offer it.

Okay...try this. Create file /etc/modprobe.d/usb.conf
And inside it: options usbcore.autosuspend=-1. And reboot.
I believe the usbcore has been compiled in...not as module.
For module the line would have been options usbcore autosuspend=0
