Re: LXDE for Slacko7
Works nice, thx. Your module is resetting Xorg after first boot so keyboard works normal, no problem with arrows keys like in vanilla S7.
I have installed Porteus with various WMs as modules like your ydrv. In Porteus i have switch load=module so i can to boot to another WM directly from syslinux.
Code: Select all
label 7a
kernel /porteus/boot/syslinux/vmlinuz
append initrd=/porteus/boot/syslinux/initrd.xz load=openbox copy2ram
label 7b
kernel /porteus/boot/syslinux/vmlinuz
append initrd=/porteus/boot/syslinux/initrd.xz load=mate copy2ram
label 7c
kernel /porteus/boot/syslinux/vmlinuz
append initrd=/porteus/boot/syslinux/initrd.xz load=xfce copy2ram
label 7d
kernel /porteus/boot/syslinux/vmlinuz
append initrd=/porteus/boot/syslinux/initrd.xz load=kde copy2ram
label 7e
kernel /porteus/boot/syslinux/vmlinuz
append initrd=/porteus/boot/syslinux/initrd.xz load=cinnamon copy2ram
label 7f
kernel /porteus/boot/syslinux/vmlinuz
append initrd=/porteus/boot/syslinux/initrd.xz load=lxde copy2ram
Is there similar switch in Puppy?
I think that i can do something like this?:
Code: Select all
# JWM
label 1e
kernel /slacko64-700/vmlinuz
append initrd=/slacko64-700/initrd.gz pmedia=ataflash psubdir=slacko64-700 pfix=fsck
# LXDE
label 1f
kernel /slacko64-700/vmlinuz
append initrd=/slacko64-700/initrd.gz pmedia=ataflash psubdir=slacko64-700 pfix=fsck ydrv=sda1:/slacko64-700/lxde/ydrv_slacko64_7.0.sfs

Re: LXDE for Slacko7
It works. I can boot to JWM or LXDE but in LXDE Slacko doesn't recognize my modem. This is strange because during boot i have messages about loading all three sfs: fzy.

Re: LXDE for Slacko7
Do the sfs modules load in a fixed row, e.g. alphabetical: fyz or y should be last loaded?

Order is not alphabetical - fzya - but is displayed in the boot messages

Re: LXDE for Slacko7
