I think in the "Desktop->Desktop Drive icon manager", there is an option to check that is unchecked by default:tlchost wrote: It is my understanding that older puppies did show an icon for music cds. Is there any way to incorporate that feature in 5.4?
"Tick box for auto-launch 'handler' when media plugged"
It might or not create an icon on the desktop, but at least it will launch your default player with the music CD.
Indeed, this is the best Puppy I've tried so far. The attention to details is very impressive, considering the wide array of hardware it supports right out of the box.tlchost wrote: Slacko is great...thanks heaps for your efforts!
PS: I had my mom over for Christmas; she came with her laptop and I thought, what the heck, let's try to introduce her to Linux using Slacko 5.4, without believing she would buy into it... Guess what, she's hooked now. She is extremely computer challenged and doesn't know the difference between an application and an OS... Well, you guys made it so easy to transition to your distribution, there is no excuse to not show it off anymore!!!
PPS: I made my mom run on a USB flash drive, but that prevent the laptop from going into "suspend" mode, because of the following in the /etc/acpi/actions/suspend.sh script:
Code: Select all
# do not suspend if usb media mounted
USBS=$(probedisk2|grep '|usb' | cut -d'|' -f1 )
for USB in $USBS
do
mount | grep -q "^$USB" && exit
done
Would you be able to detect if the Puppy runs from a USB stick and not apply this check in that case?
PPPS:
in the /etc/acpi/actions/acpi_poweroff.sh script, there is a typo:
Code: Select all
<label>Susupend</label>
Code: Select all
<label>Suspend</label>
I'm very impressed. You bested yourself once more, 01Micko et al.
