I looked into var, nothing in /var/lib/pkgtools/ or /var/slackyd/ that matches the time stamp…

Also, no luck in /etc:

aside from /etc/slackpkg /etc/file/magic/pkgadd is the only thing "pkg" in /etc … and it holds no such info.

One issue, though, and I would have to load an older 5.0rc? version to confirm if that is only now an issue with Porteus 5.0 finale:
I use an external monitor and have the laptop screen disabled - when going Fullscreen in FB it switches on the internal monitor and leaves the external one be.
That's quite annoying but I have no idea how to fix that. maybe it's some changed system settings that needs a fix or FB can be told which monitor to use when going fullscreen.
Like I said, I never recall that being the case in the past.
Hopefully one of you has an idea how to look for the issue cause I have no clue what that might be.
