Whenever I go near anything based on Racy, or Racy itself, I always replace /etc/fonts/fonts.conf, local.conf, fonts.dtd with those from Slacko. It turns this:



into this:



Fixes some font issues with Opera and a whole bunch of problems with various spreadsheets from various sources I have to use.

Thank you Jemima and all for a very functional and attractive OS. Here I speak of Saluki 013.

I tried 014 but it fell over a couple of times. The principal issue I had with 014 was being unable to write to an NTFS partition from a Ext4 format save file. Ext 3 enables this with no issues. I haven't had the time to verify if this glich exists in 013. Both 013 and 014 are on Ext4 formatted partition.

I'm using an external DAC with this system. This setup managed to break the Alsa settings in 014. So far no problems in 013.

Cheers,

Oliverjames

Re-built pet that installs to /usr
Python 3.1.4

Regarding Scratch:
I've just booted into Saluki14 with pfix=ram.

It might be okay to ignore the libpulse message - I changed the plugins entry to ALSA in the shell-script.

I've remade the pet with the original name and it now uninstalls correctly.

It does seem to be working (cat meows when asked to!)

I'll try to get the libv4 thing working as soon as I can Very Happy


Thanks. I'll check this out when I get back home tomorrow.

Can somebody explain why it seems impossible to add a second panel?

Thanks Geoffry. Natch I tried that, but it crashes the desktop to try adding another panel. Add the second panel, all goes well. Try to move it, and desktop crashes. Re-boot without moving panel, and new panel does not survive re-boot. Tested on two different machines.

This joker can neither read nor research. I know my limitations, but, evidently, he does not.

Oh, can't write a decent line of english(sic) without resorting to txt spk, either. Rather proves my oft repeated observations about transAtlantic education....

Back to the plot: still experiencing display issues with Saluki, even on most modern kit.


sage with your own words. 2 days ago you needed help with pfix=nox, today it's that I failed in my research of you and you imply your a code writer now.

with your own words whining, slander, bigotry.

I'm having no problem with it, I tried it with three extra panels and all survived a reboot, removed them and no crashes, strange that you get the same result on two machines, you may have a corrupted copy of Saluki. Confused

No, tried it with 13 and 14 with same result which means I must have installed something which conflicts. Wbar is only thing I can think of but removing it made no difference. Will try again with a vanilla save file. Thanks for he input.

I came across a ref in mageia for their xfce4, that there is a weather-plugin around that can be set as your background with updates at selected intervals.
May be an interesting idea for someone to follow up with the xfce4 group?
Wonder what resources it would chew up though.
