Porteus

There was a thread about the Razor QT System desktop icon but I don't see it even when I click on View your posts. What am I missing??

Ed, it sounds like you should take your medication and go lay down


Your post reminded me that I've also lost track of a thread here.
Someone asked about preferred programming languages nowadays...
...and the posts discussed CVS versioning (version control) and IDEs.
As I recall, the OP mentioned that he "tried and uninstalled" SVN (hmm, or was it git?)
Does that thread ring a bell for anyone reading this?

What am I missing??
Searching for it. I moved it o the appropriate category.

Well, it doesn't show up in:

http://forum.porteus.org/search.php?key ... zor-config
http://forum.porteus.org/search.php?search_id=egosearch
Bug Reports
http://forum.porteus.org/viewforum.php?f=123
x86_64 xzm modules

Even the link shown at the top of this webpage:

https://www.google.com/webhp?rls=ig#new ... fig&rls=ig

comes up empty. So what kind of search do you recommend I use??

Did you use the Set Invisible option on the thread? You certainly didn't use the Leave a link to the new topic option.

And did you post a solution to the problem before moving it?

@brokenman:

Ed_P seems to be right. Googling with the keywords: razor-config ed_p porteus, yields the following link which is empty:

lnteresting. First I moved the thread to the RazorQT category and left a shadow topic in place. Then after one day I removed the shadow topic. I guess removing the shadow removed the topic. My apologies Ed_P for any time spent searching. My answer is:

You can find where an executable lives via a terminal: which razor-config
This is the path you should put in the desktop file.

Here is a cached version of the missing page.

This was found by typing into google: site:forum.porteus.org razor-config and then clicking on the 'cached' option.

Rookie Admin. Did you pass the Admin test before becoming one? Isn't there a FAQ you can read that tells you how to move a topic without loosing it? Boy!!

My apologies Ed_P for any time spent searching.

I understand brokenman. I've done it also. Apology accepted.

My answer is:

Another interesting command. Thank you.

But I did have the correct path in the desktop icon, I mistyped it in the lost posting. And the icon now does indeed work.

Thank you for helping fix the icon, and finding the lost thread. Is the reason the original script didn't work because I'm booting an ISO?
