Installed cairo-dock and got:

cairo-dock
cairo-dock: error while loading shared libraries: libgtkglext-x11-1.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Fresh frugal install of 009 with save file.

EDIT: Got it working by examining dependencies then installing them. Not as intuitive as it could be but it worked nevertheless.

Upgraded to 009 with previous save file
Midori complains : TLS/SSL support not available; install glib-networking
GTk themes now are without red:)
Installed cairo-dock just to play a bit
maybe it's possible to apply global-menu somehow?

Still can not save setings in Flsynclient

Re-updated some 008 save files. This time with and without adrive hidden. Same behavior of Frisbee as before. Failed to connect using pre-existing profile, then would not accept the key. Disabled Frisbee and connected smoothly with the Dougal network wizard. Same key same everything. Rebooted and it remembers the connection. THEN, took the network down, re-enabled Frisbee, It accepted the key, connected, and is persistent through reboots with or without adrive present. ??

Puzzle not truly solved but no longer much of an irk. If Frisbee fails after an update (ONLY time it ever has) disable it, use Dougal and seems good to go then , either with or without Frisbee. Makes me happy because there is a fair amount of time wrapped up in a nicely configured save file and in the long run Frisbee seems more universal.

Never had much love for flSynclient. I'll try editing the Xorg.conf more patiently and probably continue to live with that.

Hi smokey01, it works for me, you need to install gtkglext-1.2.0-i486.pet first.http://smokey01.com/jemimah/saluki/pets ... 0-i486.pet

Should the Xfce* folders be at the root of the adrv sfs and thus the root of the filesystem?
It makes a "strange" root directory.

Also, any thoughts on (mounted) drives showing on the Desktop?

xmenumaker problem....see screenie

[peebee]

How do you guys feel about removing the desktop icons?

I like a clean desktop - but I'm blowed if I can work out how to get anything back onto the desktop!!

Can somebody post a quick "howto"?

I think that something will have to be provided for newbies.....otherwise they will sit looking at a blank desktop for ever...

I just looked, they are xfce themes directories, they should be in /usr/share/themes.

xmenumaker problem....see screenie

it needs to be made executable, here is the lastest I've made it will replace the existing one, just extract it and place it in /usr/sbin

to add icons to the desktop in the dropdown menu just left click and hold on the menu item that you want and drag it to the desktop.

Many thanks - easy when you know how - but if you don't know how, impossible to guess.....I expected it to be a right click function but of course that didn't work

Hi jemimah

Any chance I could ask for pnethood to be included for samba shares?

You need

http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/dis ... atched.pet

and

http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/dis ... -0.6.8.pet

They work fine in saluki

Thanks

009: Can't get a FULL to boot. KP, try entering init= . Equals what?!
G4D. Please can we have the Legacy GRUB - it may not be pretty, but it works on almost anything - AND it's a tiny file.

....or is it there and I missed it?

[oligin10]

I can't do a full install either. Same problems as Sage. Neither Saluki 8 nor Saluki 9 will work. Thanks, Rob

If you put grub into Find or Terminal......it's there

Very true! What next? Can't find a way to run it from Find! Don't want the utility displayed as a text file. Only G4D offered under "Run". G4D runs OK but I get a KP, as indicated above: not syncing no init found and all that garbage we had some time ago.

So is it bust or what does init equal?!

Never did like G4D. Too many smart-*sses fiddling around with simple stuff that works?! Loadsa threads all over this board expressing the same sentiments. K.I.S.S.

Tried to run Legacy from Luci & luki2beta - didn't work either.

Figured out the lack of scrolling. In the flsynclient GUI, turning off tap mode in the list box also turns off scrolling. It sets the touchpad off parameter to 2 in .flSynclient. To get scrolling, no tapping, leave the setting at the default (touchpad on in the GUI) and edit .flSynclient so that MaxTapTime is 0. So, only the calibrate functions seem truly broken there.

Very true! What next?

type

Code: Select all

grubconfig

in a terminal

can't help with full installs - I only do manual frugal installs - and I liked grub4dos for my purposes

[jemimah]

Just need to get coherent(!) instruction on how to install the correct FlashPlayer(s) for Midori & Opera with iPlayer - please.

What is wrong with the flashplayer?

Here is glib-networking.

I'm not sure what you mean by "apply global-menu".
