Release Candidates :: DSL v4.1RC3



A very petty point regarding the updated feature list that started this thread... with Fluxbox WM, the fluxter.bb is in bottom Right-HC.
Actually that's an oops on my part on the location.
The change log is correct it is supposed to be in the LHC as per 3.x versions.
Now that's an easy one to fix. Hope the rest of the reported bugs will be that easy.

DSL4.1RC3.

On two different computers LiveCD and also toram, both with norestore. One computer has dsl3.4.7 frugal/lilo/toram the other is only for LiveCD with swap and persistent partitions.

Unable to use extensions.

Tried cbb-gtk2-0.79.dsl gimp-1.2.unc and openoffice.uci.
Does not load them.

UCI tool shows nothing mounted.

On shutdown several error messages ...output #1 ... permission denied....
Any suggestions?.

EDIT.
Sorry figured it out. Ran LiveCD as base legacy norestore. Then extensions loaded. Located them in "MYDSL" base icon and also right-click menu/mydsl.

It is good to point out that there is a big difference in v3.x vs v4.x concerning permissions.
4.x uses less sudo and can boot as a user other than user dsl. So the permissions on the mydsl/ folder (directory) need to setup properly. Trying to use a 3.x mydsl/ directory with root.root permission will not work and will make it appear that your extensions will not load, or even the mydsl download browser may display as empty.

Thanks roberts.

Keep up the good work.
