No. Can you give me example of this (these) command(s)?

I think need to take one font from kbd-1.15-x86_64-3.txz package and to tweak /etc/rc.d/rc.font (set a correct font via right commands)

Slight glitch with screen locker. Have two layouts en and ru. Had switched to ru and then returned to en. However screen locker now insists on being in ru. Enter pw fails, and have to toggle dialog switch to en in order to get pw accepted.

Worked out how to activate module from CLI. Must not be done as root but as guest, in which case root password has to be supplied, following which activation takes place. 8)

It depends which desktop but look in the terminal menus for changing the encoding. In xfce4 it is 'Terminal/Set Encoding'

The next release will have code in the bootscripts to set guest home folder permissions during boot.

I booted 3.2rc3 with no changes= parm.
I created a new 256MB save.dat file.
I rebooted 3.2rc3 with changes=EXIT; and address of the new save.dat file.
I added and saved the password for my wi-fi router.
I changed the clock display to be 12 hrs.
I rebooted, saving my changes,
On rebooting I get the guest logon screen.

Nothing was added to /home/guest/.
Something was most definitely added to /home/guest. The question is: What was added? The answer really depends on how you went about the procedures above.

Cinnamon 32 bit

VLC Issue
Using the vlc bundle here viewtopic.php?f=51&t=5827, vlc gives no trouble to speak of in Maate, XFCE and in KDE rc2 (32/64 bit). (Not able to get into rc3 KDE as need nvidia driver for this.)

In Cinnamon rc1, rc2 and rc3 quitting vlc after playing videos results in vlc terminating, but the window remains with the picture part greyed out. Cinnamon freezes, and only mouse pointer movement is possible. The consoles can however be reached. Normally had no thought of closing vlc, but running in terminal to verify an error documented by someone else, led to trying to free terminal by terminating vlc.

BTW is there simple command to restart Cinnamon from a console? (Been searching high and low for it.)

1. Booted porteus 3.2 rc3 x86_64 Cinnamon ISO 
   AF mode, no extramods, no changes
   Porteus save file manager
   Created new 256MB save file.
2. ReBooted porteus  3.2 rc3 x86_64 Cinnamon ISO
   AF mode, no extramods
   changes=EXIT
   Menu > Preferences > Date & Time > 24 hr clock > off
3. ReBooted porteus  3.2 rc3 x86_64 Cinnamon ISO
   AF mode, no extramods
   changes=EXIT
   Logon screen for guest 
   entered password for guest
   Logon screen for guest reappeared
   Changed logon to root
   System came up but clock is displaying 24 hr format.
Hope this helps your testing.
