Hi Jim Not sure what you looking at, however there are 2 kinds of links, hard links and symbolic links, a hard link will appear as a diffrent file not a link and appear as the same size, if you delete the original file the link will still exist as a copy of the file, here is an example, this will ac...

All I do is add "System load" plugin to my task bar, right click -> properties, cpu tab uncheck "text to display" change color to green, memory tab uncheck "text to display" change color to blue, swap tab uncheck "show monitor", uptime t...

Hi All Im using Poertus 1.2 XFCE version and I have the system load tray icon to show cpu and memory, today I noticed the command /usr/libexec/xfce4/panel-plugins/xfce4-systemload-plugin was using 600mb, so I removed it and added it again it dropped to 3mb usage, does anyone else experience similar ...

Hi All

Slackware 14 is out and I see no posts mentioning it, there were some when one of the rc got released and some modules made but things have been really quite here lately is everyone too busy? What are the plans for the next version of porteus?

For those of us that are lazy there is an alternative option to use svnkit from svnkit.com which is a java API library that includes command line wrappers for most svn options. As long as java is installed it should work fine just download unzip and run as far as I can remember there were no depende...

what I normally do is map the hope directory to a /mnt/sda1/home or something writable I do this in /etc/passwd and make a module for it, now that I think of it it could be a really handy cheatcode to say roothome=/mnt/sda1/myhomes/root or homepath=/mnt/sda1/homes for guest or other users, just not ...

Hi brokenman Not exactly, the code I sent was exactly the solution I wanted, the thing that was bugging me was lack of consistency i.e. there is a cheatcode for root and none for guest but no way nor neither. In my opinion t it should be toroot, toguest and nothing for login screen but since the oth...

issue resolved it was my extlinux that was at fault nothing to do with modules.. vmlinuz was taken from rc1 and initrd from rc2... grrrr Hey Ahau The standard version works well however when I tried with nvidia drivers I had issues with xorg Porteus-XFCE rc1 + nvidia 295.20 <-- this is fine Porteus-...
