Thanks. Noticed this also in kolourpaint/save as at the 11th hour so decided to address in next release.

Re: unnecessary references to slax,slax-remix name in Porteu
More of a branding issue than a reference to slax--
When shutting down/logging out of KDE, the logout menu is displayed with a picture of a mouse next to it. That mouse has a clover on it.

Right click on lzm module in Konqueror -> Open with... gives two options: Use Slax module and Slax Module Manager.
Edit: D'oh, no it doesn't - I had an old 'changes' partition from a previous version mounted.

Re: unnecessary references to slax,slax-remix name in Porteu
this is not an unnecessary reference to slax, but a consequence of the difference in name lengths of slax and porteus:
In the initial start window it reads by pxe option "serve" instead of "server".
I changed the width parameter from 28 to 30. Solved.
I also added a corrected version of "configure-for-slax", now "configure-for-porteus", for developers:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#!/bin/bash
if [ ! -x ./configure ]; then
echo "You can't start 'configure-for-porteus' in a directory with no 'configure' script"
exit 1
fi
CFLAGS="-O3 -march=i486 -mtune=i686" \
./configure --prefix=/usr --build=i486-Slackware-linux "$@"
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
this convenient script was absent from SR V09
Regards!

Porteus is proud of the FASTEST KDE ever made.....(take akonadi, nepomuk and soprano out and you will have a decent OS).
