I can not get a wifi connection with WPA/TKIP in Saluki 005. It always worked fine in other puppies and in 001-004 Saluki.
Xfce4 is fine Smile

Barking is essential for testing and reassurance.
Double-click default will only endear you to hardened refugees. One will suffice.
Appreciate the small size, but even the crumbiest default browser (other than ELinks!) would help until all the items in PPM are updated in nluug & ibiblio. Please update FlashPlayer to Opera11.6-compatible version - think mick did this for Slacko? might've been PD for Lupu? Or let folks know how to do their own update?
Could the Xfce Control Panel be reverted to a pre-4.8 version and operated like the full Settings Manager?

I don't think xfdesktop has a single click option. Let me know if you find it.

I think it has only double click. That's why i move all launchers into second xfce-panel at top.
But in next xfce4.10( beta in January? ) they promise to apply single click since desktop will be handled by thunar

To solve the problem where Frisbee won't take your password create the following directory:
Code:
/usr/share/gvfs/remote-volume-monitors

For those who had difficulty getting SNS or Dougals Network Wizard to work, did you disable Frisbee first?

You should go into the control panel and tell Frisbee not to start.

After that it should work, as long as you select SNS or Dougals Network from the Internet Connection Wizard.

Let me know if it still doesn't. I'm not sure if my newer dhcpcd is incompatble with the other scripts or not. I don't really want have to include two versons of dhcpcd.

Looks good, but does need a debug, I still have the petget problem with a USB install but this fixes that

Also have problem emptying the trash and deleting some files, don't know if it's USB related, I get this message sometimes " unable to trash file invalid cross-device link ", right clicking desktop trash icon the "Empty Trash" greyed out don't work.

To explore sfs files with thunar, right click on sfs file go to " Open With Other Application" then "Use a custom command:" type in "filemnt" then have ability to mount and unmount sfs file's by clicking them, no xdg-open, so can't configure web browser downloader to open mime types, can only set to open download folder using Thunar command.

xf desktop mouse is double click, there has never been a single click option.

I have some themes that seem to work ok with xfce and thunar, try theses.

Oops I broke that. I'll fix it for the next release. Xdg-open is called exo-open in xfce.

I told Frisbee not to start, then used SNS and it worked but needs to be rerun each reboot.
Then I used Dougals Network and ran auto dhcp, saved the settings, and the wireless network connects each bootup.

Here's a small mod for the /root/.gtkrc.mine file so that the desktop icons don't have those ugly text box's
Code:
style "xfdesktop-icon-view" {
    XfdesktopIconView::label-alpha = 0
}
widget_class "*XfdesktopIconView*" style "xfdesktop-icon-view"
gtk-icon-theme-name="gnome"
gtk-can-change-accels = 1
gtk-double-click-time = 500
gtk-font-name = "DejaVu Sans 10"


Here's a screen shot using the transparent gtk.mine and a transparent wallpaper and changed the backround color, also shows stuff in the trash but the button is greyed out.



jemimah, I notice there was no xfce screen shooter, works good in conjunction with clipman, gives a preview in Clipboard Manager on taskbar, for the size it's worth including, here is a copy of the one from Quirky nop, seems to work ok, just a thought.

There is one builtin, no need for another, also shows motherboard temp and voltages, there isn't much thats needed to add to xfce, has a lot of features.

I think it didn't compile when I tried. I'll take another look or use yours if I can't get it.

In the 'conventional' Xfce Settings/Xfce 4 Settings Manager/File Manager/Behaviour can be found the 'single click' option. {It works on everything except icons from the displayed desktop.}
But, I don't recognise the present version of Xfce Control Panel and don't see the usual 'Settings Manager'. Would be a good plan to inspect a regular distro installation that defaults to Xfce - there are lots - then all will become clear. I think gray might use the 'regular' Xfce in NOP? Also try Mint9Xfce/Vector/PCLOS-PhoenixXfce/Others, possibly Lighthouse?
It's in there somewhere but not implemented, esp. in Xfce overlay distros like Gnome'buntu and Gnome Mint, into which can be loaded the Xfce desktop. i.e., although Xfce is only a desktop, you need to inspect a distro designed as an Xfce release with all the excess Gnome garbage removed. There are guys who do this very successfully but it's well outside my remit.

jemimah, that xfce4-screenshooter still has the help button active which links to " /usr/bin/xfhelp4 " , this opens file:///usr/share/doc/index.html in conjunction with /usr/bin/xfbrowser4 which is already in Saluki, but not being used by the look of it

And while I remember, the open on the right click menu of the desktop trash don't work for me either, it's strange when emptying the trash, it pops up with a message that files can't be modified and do you want to skip them, if I select yes to all they delete, weird Confused
