Great to hear rchase. I bought me a intel compute stick whilst overseas. My next project is to get Porteus onto it.
Porteus is working amazingly well on my Kangaroo. I have noticed one glitch involving the graphics cursor, which occasionally disappears (although the GUI seems otherwise unbroken); issuing "startx" brings it back (unsurprisingly), but that is no solution. Google Maps has crashed the whole system (not consistently) so that I had to power the Kangaroo off.

Blaze I think I will stick with what slackware-14.2 is using. It is very late in the game to be updating such a large and important component without it being tested and pushed to slackware. I compiled it ok but would still rather wait.

rchase what exactly was the cursor glitch? I've experienced the occasional cursor freeze but haven't been able to track down the cause.

The graphics cursor simply disappears, but icons still highlight when the (now invisible) cursor passes over them, their activity launches when clicked, and there seems to be nothing else amiss in Porteus (based on the most casual observation) -- I have not noticed what occasions this behavior.

Downloaded the alsa-plugins package from packages.slackware.org and added it, this happens upon launching an app that uses alsa:

Missing icons give me a rash. If someone could install a common iconset (perhaps adwaita) and see what the missing icons look like it would help me greatly in fixing this.

I could not even ping my router.

If you hover over the firefwall button 'normal' you can see the open ports. raceroute uses random high UDP ports so you will need to pass it an argument to use tcp 80.

Code: Select all

traceroute --tcp www.google.com

I assume the firewall rules have been changed.(For good reason?)
I will check it, because ping, traceroute was possible for guest even if
the firewall was set to "block all".

Confirm, if you use another language - this command fixes many problems.

For example:

  • before screenshots are saved in the root directory - now screenshots are saved in the folder 'Изображения'

BTW via settings of nm-applet in the Cinnamon I disable IPv6 (I set ignore IPv6) and now I have a less Internet randomly disconnects.
