- /dev/sda should be limited from 1 to 15
- there are big files like LLVM, icudata, xul, flashplayer...what can be done ?
- when doing for instance ls /dev/ram0 it displays in bright color not easily readable.
- /usr/local/share/pixmaps/ has only one file
- There is /lib/libssl.so.1.0.0 and /lib/libssl.so.0.9.8 but 9.8 is not used

That was deliberate. I think that there is an incompatibility between the two versions. The Ubuntu repo has both of these. 0.9.8 is included in the build for any pkgs that might be installed that need it, including some older PETs.

I did add this into it:

Code: Select all

google-chrome-*)
if [ -f /usr/bin/bbe ];then #bbe is a sed-like utility for binary files.
if [ -f /opt/google/chrome/chrome  ];then
bbe -e 's/geteuid/getppid/' /opt/google/chrome/chrome > /tmp/chrome-temp1
mv -f /tmp/chrome-temp1 opt/google/chrome/chrome
chmod 755 /opt/google/chrome/chrome
ln -s /opt/google/chrome/chrome /usr/bin/google-chrome
echo '[Desktop Entry]

Terminal=false

   fi
  fi
 ;;

And then I downloaded this one:
https://www.google.com/chrome/intl/en/e ... a_i386_deb

Posting from it now. This kind hack might enable the root user restricted .deb browsers. Well...they also might broke Cups, have done that in the past...but this seems to help installing these browsers anyway...

I agree.
Or at least put a scrollbar in the JWM theme chooser, so that having many themes won't expand the GUI from roof to floor -- at times I think the Exit button will reach China. The same happens in the Icon Set Chooser GUI, a scrollbar for that one would be great, too.

The Simple Network Setup script could really use a scrollbar, when using it in areas with many routers the list goes below the taskbar and the buttons, and passphrase input field are not visible.

ERROR: The kernel header file
'/lib/modules/3.8.0/build/include/linux/version.h' does not exist. The
most likely reason for this is that the kernel source files in
'/lib/modules/3.8.0/build' have not been configured.
