I've tried different options with it but all the windows look the same; -d info, -d err, -d warn. Same with -p and -s. Am I missing something?

only the icons are different (you saw ) and -d yesno has two buttons.. the next version will have a -w option to set the window title..

kdialog is a kde thing.. As for the missing dialog files I use them in this desktop script to display the usage of my savedat file. so, just a simple info dialog.. you could use /usr/share/porteus/gtkdialog.py as an alternative... '/usr/share/porteus/gtkdialog.py -h' to see the usage.. in this case,...

The Xdialog and kdialog files appear to be missing since a script I have that uses them doesn't work in 5.0. yeah, we removed it, because there's nothing using it.. what sort of function do you use it for? And rc.local_shutdown is not displaying savedat file usage when shutting down. do you get any...

In the past logrotate used a file in /etc/ named logrotate.conf. But that file isn't in 5.0rc2. are you sure? $ ls /mnt/live/memory/images/001-core.xzm/etc/logrotate* /mnt/live/memory/images/001-core.xzm/etc/logrotate.conf /mnt/live/memory/images/001-core.xzm/etc/logrotate.d: syslog wpa_supplicant

Could you please advices what we should try next? apologies, we put out a quite old build of mate, hence blueman and dbus-python are out of date.. maybe try: getpkg blueman dbus-python this will get the latest from slackware current, compatible with python3.8.. will look into trying to update mate..

What chances do I have to make it work and add the icon in the tray?

can you try to start blueman-manager(i think that's the right one) from a terminal and see what messages result?

Unfortunately it didn't work. i've found another way: use consolekit manager: dbus-send --system --print-reply --dest=org.freedesktop.ConsoleKit /org/freedesktop/ConsoleKit/Manager org.freedesktop.ConsoleKit.Manager.Suspend boolean:true which, for /opt/porteus-scripts/extra/gtk-logout.py line 47 tr...

But, do the mirrors reflect rc versions of files?

no .. the official server and it's mirrors remain at RC1 for now.. hopefully, we'll sort something out before RC3..

When I launch the command: dbus-send --system --print-reply --dest="org.freedesktop.UPower" /org/freedesktop/UPower org.freedesktop.UPower.Suspend seems upower(the newer version we're using) doesn't have a "suspend" action (if this is anything to go by: https://upower.freedesktop.org/docs/UPower.ht...

The user "guest" is hard coded in the initrd.xz. When Porteus boots, it's looking only for "root" or "guest", it knows nothing about other users. The only way to change that would be to rebuild the initrd.xz, actually, there's nothing in linuxrc to do with login.. there is one line referring to gue...

updated to version 20200828
fixed self introduced bugs: test doesn't do globs[*] :p

try this one: DDNet-14.4.1-x86_64.xzm 26 mb md5sum: 0ad4aeedd81c6e020cfa05b82feabb59 it's just the prebuilt binary tarball from the website extracted to /opt and linked in /usr/bin contents: DDNet-14.4.1-x86_64 ├── opt │   └── DDNet │   ├── DDNet │   ├── DDNet-Server │   ├── autoexec_server.cfg │   ...

so you're saying that when editing a file -i (--in-place) wasn't needed? don't think that's anything we've done... can't see how an alias would work..
can only think that it's a change in behaviour for sed itself..
ie. not our bug, more likely an upstream feature/change..

The Porteus Save File Manager doesn't allow a Location to be specified, either by manually entering the Location or searching for a location, when Creating a New savefile. It works in RC1.

The Create New Save Container window has been redesigned.

yup, seems to be missing some key functionality..
