Downloaded, sum checked, iso and frugal 3b1 updated. No issues, xlock and screener checked. Installed Geoffreys copy_path and it works a treat. The xclip in X-slacko (0.10) seems adequate, only the copy_path pet applied. Evince 2.32.0 installed and working (Carolina pet didn't work.. gave the oft reported 'pdf format not supported' error msg. The evince-2.32.0-patched_ice-i486-tahr.pet from the Tahr repo worked fine). Abiword 3.0.0 managed the format on one of my problematic docs about as well as LibreOffice did (Abiword 2.8.x quite blew it) so it seems a keeper for now. I know people loathe it and I've had my tussles with it, but it handles most mundane chores quite well at this point. Using flashplayer 10.3.183.51 (from the PPM) and Slimboat is playing BBC live and the few youtubes I've tried. Gnome-mplayer plays cds (nice, tracks in notifications) and dvds (fullscreen ok). Not fancy but seems a good basic player. No burps, tears, or glitches.
Copy_path was already there, right click "Copy Full Path". Geoffrey's was giving me a bit of trouble so I simply added a 'printf %f | parcellite' custom command, no script required.
I guess apps is the next step. I downloaded the latest Firefox but it's huge, It'll kill my 'under 200mb' quota and FF crashes a lot these days. I tried shinobars no qt vlc for Tahr but it wouldn't work, I guess I'll have to try compiling it myself.
