I just installed latest cooking version on an old IBM laptop. Everything runs fine except when I try to install the bluefish 2.0.2 editor package. The installation makes the taskbar disappear and I am not able to get it back. Is there any workaround for this? I have not found mention of this on the forum so peraphs I am the only one experiencing this problem.

Thanks.

I have frugal installed it on my Harddisk.

My problem is that after installing packages like gcc, blender, etc size of rootfs has gone beyond 200MB although it is compressed with gzip.

Although I have a large RAM, but i still want that it does not load into ram completely.

Is there any way to boot slitaz like ubuntu, knoppix, etc where system does not load completely into ram.

These distros have squashfs filesystem. How can I impliment it to slitaz

When I first opened /etc/firewall.conf, I saw a long configuration file with entries like:

# Enable/disable kernel security at boot time.

KERNEL_SECURITY="yes"

# Enable/disable iptables rules.

IPTABLES_RULES="yes"

......

# Netfilter/iptables rules.

# This shell function is included in /etc/init.d/firewall.sh

# to start iptables rules.

#

iptables_rules()

{

......

I changed some setttings in the iptables_rules() function, saved /etc/firewall.conf, then did /etc/init.d/firewall restart.

However, it showed errors like (each line looks similar):

.....

/etc/init.d/firewall: /etc/firewall.conf: line 6: -A: not found

.....

I tried pscan localhost, and the open ports do not match my modifications to /etc/firewall.conf.

Then, I tried to open /etc/firewall.conf via the Server Manager GUI, and found that the entire contents have been *replaced* by just this:

# Generated by iptables-save v1.4.10 on Tue Dec 28 02:55:54 2010

The iptables_rules() function is no longer present, also gone are the lines like "KERNEL_SECURITY="yes"".

It seems to me that my firewall configuration files have been corrupted somehow, is there a way for me to restore all of them to their factory defaults? Afterwards, how do I safely edit my firewall configuration?

Thanks.

glxgears reports 260.000 FPS

to change this, its necessary to change permission of /dev/dri to user:tux group:video - then the correct renderer is used

tux@slitaz:~$ glxinfo | grep render
direct rendering: Yes
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI Intel(R) 965GM GEM 20100330 DEVELOPMENT x86/MMX/SSE2

but glxgears is only:

tux@slitaz:~$ glxgears
Running synchronized to the vertical refresh.  The framerate should be
approximately the same as the monitor refresh rate.
299 frames in 5.0 seconds = 59.670 FPS
300 frames in 5.0 seconds = 59.821 FPS

now how it should be (the new 2011-alfa from fluxflux):

monika@fluxflux: ~ $ glxinfo | grep render
direct rendering: Yes
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI Intel(R) 965GM GEM 20100328 2010Q1 x86/MMX/SSE2
monika@fluxflux: ~ $ glxgears
1985 frames in 5.0 seconds = 396.521 FPS
2053 frames in 5.0 seconds = 410.139 FPS
