fossa 9.5 remaster problems (solved)

fossa 9.5 remaster problems

I've done a lot of remasters in the past, but this one has me baffled

intel q9400 cpu, 4gb ram, intel onboard graphics

running fossa 9.5 frugal install on sda1,added some pets, changed jwm themes and wallpaper

remaster, no changes to /root or /etc

boot remaster problems: none of these exit in the original install

1. conky does not run
solution= add adrv_fossapup64_9.5.sfs and fdrv_fossapup64_9.5.sfs to remaster folder
2. pmcputemp-0.63-i686 gone from taskbar
solution= can probably edit /etc to fix
3. mouse scroll wheel can no longer shade a window
solution= ?
4. inactive windows are now semi-transparent (boy does that get annoying fast)
solution= menu>desktop>jwm desk manager>puppyy setup>graphics/screen>picom compositor>stop>remove autostart

5. keyboard up arrow key opens mtpaint
solution= ?
6. Rebooting doe not load the save file created at shutdown
solution= ?
7. system has lost communication (don't know if that is right term)
with /home
graphic drive icons on boot, note sda1 not mounted

clicking mounts sda1, but does not change conky

Related to this, I have a bash script that starts firefox in a directory
in /home.

Code: Select all

#!/bin/sh
#launches apulse audio & 64bit firefox in /mnt/home/firefox_x64/firefox

apulse /mnt/home/firefox_x64/firefox/firefox

Running the script in a terminal gives this error: no such file or directory

I can use rox to open the firefox directory and the firefox bin file will run from there.

thanks for any help
