My report on Quirky 6.0
Hi BarryK et al,
I installed Quirky Unicorn 6.2 to a Flash Stick using Method D and all seems well.
Whilst the latest version of SeaMonkey (v 2.30) is included - the "usual" update option under Help seems to be absent - so I'd appreciate advice on how to install the next update.
Thank you BarryK.
My regards

Another great release!
Running from a slow 16 GB usb 2.00 key, but everything flies..
Writing from a non-english Firefox 33.0.1, installed in /opt.
Even Firefox seems faster than the same FF in Precise 5.7.2.
But that could be because it's still virginal...
One thing I noticed: Clicking the 'eye' in Rox filemanager, to show all files and folders, does not work like it used to:
In fact, it does not work at all.
Is it me not understanding a new approach or is it a little bug?
Thank you very much Barry!
EDIT: forget my "hidden file problem"! Rox opens /file by default in Quirky and not /root. We Belgians are not the brightest, but we're brave

sha1 and md5 are different. Technically speaking md5 is less secure than sha1.

For those who don't speak Latin as fluently as linuxcbon and I, here's a rough translation of Julius Caesar's idea about the Belgians:
How true.Of all these, they are the bravest, because they are absent from the culture and civilization of the Province, and merchants least frequently resort to them, and import those things which tend to effeminate the mind;

Yes I know but I didn't read carefully, I blindly typed what was written in documentation http://ftp.nluug.nl/os/Linux/distr/quir ... .htm[quote]bark_bark_bark wrote:sha1 and md5 are different. Technically speaking ms5 is less secure than sha1.
Verify download.Open a terminal window where you have downloaded the files, and execute this:
# sha1sum *
...check against contents of sha1sums.txt[/quote]
I just checked and md5sum works ...I shouldn't blindly follow documentations...
I installed and booted from an usb stick, following method A with fsf.
Oh the color mint green is horrible , (my taste is different I know).
Starting seamonkey for the first time takes a long time. But starting the OS seems quite fast.
In dmesg I got
/tmp/xerrs.log gives
There is even a ping to google.com
softmaker replaces abiword and asks for a key, didnt try this yet.
Same for calc, gnumeric is replaced.
Clicking the desktop "file" icon makes ROX go to /file/ , but usually I think it goes to /root/ ?
Clicking the chat icon, what program is it ? It asks name and password... qutim ? I dont know it...

It's not you, the green IS horrible, it is fatiguing for the eyes...but hey, it's spring in Oz Themes and colors are easily changed.linuxcbon wrote:I installed and booted from an usb stick, following method A with fsf.

That's a design decision. Very dificult situation: Abiword, although perfect for short editing, is not ready for real life, but Gnumeric easily wins the spreadsheet contest.softmaker replaces abiword and asks for a key, didnt try this yet.
Same for calc, gnumeric is replaced.
Ha, glad I'm not the only one confused..If I remember correctly, Barry wanted to address the security problem when all important stuff resides in /root.Clicking the desktop "file" icon makes ROX go to /file/ , but usually I think it goes to /root/ ?
I'll have a small horn of barley brew now

My report on Quirky 6.0
I pulled the nvidia graphics card out of my lenovo desktop pc in favor
of the builtin intel graphics and did a new install to the hard drive.

linuxcbon, regarding those <corner> tags, that was supported in an earlier version of JWM. JWM now just ignores them, but posts a warning.

Got it installed...... ext4 partition on traditional internal hard drive. Zero difficulties.
Looks good.

I tested softmaker "textmaker" but sadly it doesn't display images in my .doc file and exporting to pdf doesn't include the image...planmaker (gnumeric replacement) opens ok.
I installed openoffice and libreoffice, and they don't have that problem, they display the .doc ok. So I would recommend them instead of softmaker, unless softmaker solve this bug.
