Hi xman, Thanks for bringing this to my attention.xman wrote:Warning! MacPup is an exception. Ubuntu Slimboat does not start on Slacko, Racy or Precise.
I just downloaded slimboat_i386.tar.xz from http://www.slimboat.com/en/dlpage.php and installed it with the builtin install script to Slacko 5.4. It refused to install until I used PPM to install gst-plugins-base-0.10.36-i486-2.txz and its dependencies. Then it installed fine.
I did a test download which worked and I'm typing this reply in it right now. So far I'm quite impressed. Will let you know if any problems arise.
Thanks again, J
