Hi, i tried to understand this instruction to create a save.dat container: http://porteus.org/info/docs/57-general ... d-one.html
I did the following steps:
1. i used the Porteus save.dat Manager to create a save.dat file.
2. i edited the end of the append line and inserted the save.dat location.
This screenshot shows both changes:
Unfortunatly something has to be wrong. The System doesn t save any changes after restart.
I hope someone can help me?
Regards

Re: Create a save.dat container
The howto specifies:
changes=/porteus/0.dat
changes=/porteus/0.dat

Tx.
Sry, i didn t realise yet,it works the way i installed it. I just looked on my screen resolution. Porteus doesn t save the screen resolution in save.dat. I will create an extra thread for it.

Yes,
francois is right! You need to change your porteus.cfg
Replace every 'changes=/porteus/' by 'changes=/mnt/sdb1/0.dat'
Good Luck!

Sometime there are special driver issues not to complicated to be resolved for the screen to be functional. For example, you may have a nvidia driver. Are you on the 32-bit or 64-bit version of porteus?Jabadu wrote:Tx.

If you are in the 32 bit:
click on the left button of the control panel (kde menu), choose system, then superuser mode. A cli or terminal will open. Try the following command that will specify amongst other information your graphic driver:
Code: Select all
root@porteus:~# lspci
00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset Memory Controller Hub (rev 07)
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 07)
...
...
00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 07)
...
Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 07)
Or post the results of lspci.
