Hi, all.
Terry, thank you for the menu script. I will test it and write back.
William,
Pressing desktop buttons does not change wallpaper on first boot. I think they should. Solution is to change line in $HOME/.desktop.conf from:
to
[/url]
I prefer to keep it off. First it uses less ram and second I suspect auo-start wallpapers at boot created the issue I had with previous wallpapers.gui. At least I think it was related with replacing the wallpapers.gui while desktop.ctrl was active. I might be wrong but I prefer to play safe. I think is better the user to start wallpapers if needed.
Furthermore, on my system at least, $HOME/.wallpapers/wallpapers.lst
uses 'Scale' which doesn't stretch out the background to fill my screen. I need to modify that replacing all occurrences of 'Scale' with 'Stretch'.
I will change it to stretch. I guess it is fine with scale only on my computer.
I haven't checked this in practice yet so could be wrong. pman should also have the defaultwebbrowser term changed to align with what term is used for that in DebianDog.
I think adding links to default apps with puppy like names as you suggested will fix this. I will test it in the next days.
In regards to the above I'm still also wondering how the system will know that iceweasel becomes default_web-browser without manually arranging that. Or am I missing something about that.
I don't think every new installed web browser should auto-become default browser. Not sure for Iceweasel, but Firefox has Preferences option to check if it is default browser and change it every time Firefox run.
Do you have other suggestion instead manual default browser setup?
Are you intending to offer options like Porteus-Wheezy has for using a simple changes directory as an alternative at some stage Toni?
You can do it now by booting with this initrd:
http://www.smokey01.com/saintless/Light ... 0-4-486.xz
It becomes Porteus-DebianDog this way.
Similar if you boot with this initrd made from Fred for DebianDog:
http://www.smokey01.com/saintless/Light ... ux-live.xz
Try similar to this code for the last one:
Code: Select all
title lldeb (sda3/lldeb)
root (hd0,0)
kernel /lldeb/vmlinuz from=/lldeb
initrd /lldeb/initrd.xz
The plan is to include both initrd (porteus and the default initrd1.img) for the beta version like in this testing iso:
http://www.smokey01.com/saintless/Light ... g-test.iso
Just not sure about separating the kernel module from the main module yet.
