I just wanted to get rid of samba, et al. That leads to thunar, to which elive appears joined at the hip. WTF for? Any user ought to be able to say, "I don't work the way that app works, so it should go", without breaking their system. This's just userspace apps I'm talking about. Sucks to be me. $ aptitude -s remove samba-common smbclient smbfs smb-browser thunby tqk - [OLD] - Installed Mode

Why don't Linux installers check for serial mice? This's easy: /etc/gpm.conf: device=/dev/ttyS0 responsiveness=15 repeat_type=ms3 type=mman /etc/X11/xorg.conf: Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Configured Mouse" Driver "mouse" Option "Device" "/dev/gpmdata"by tqk - [OLD] - Installed Mode
Ah. It's always the smallest of glitches that get in the way. I finally found my installer-mod.cod, attached to a mail saved to ~/MAIL/el Installer is chugging away happily.by tqk - [OLD] - Installed Mode

Damn, this is annoying. I think I bumped a hundred bucks your way the other day. I love the system. Now, I'm re-installing, and it's not trivial. Yeah, this's my sandbox. email goes to my primary box. elive emails to $email address. How to get that from there to sandbox? ssh of course. I've already gone through all that at least twice.

Fluxbox works. Good enough. LXDE doesn't appear to want to, but that's not a great loss, just confusing. Fluxbox performance is much better on this thing. Woohoo! :-)by tqk - [OLD] - Installed Mode
Hi, I'm a long time Linux+Debian user, but new to e-live. I have it running swimmingly on a PIV-2.4 GHz Compaq Evo, 0.5 Gb RAM, my sandbox box. This's mostly a full elive install via expert mode (it ignored a few ptns I wanted to use the first time, so I did it over). I'd like printing to work. I get !@#$ about XPSERVERLIST in Galeon when I try. I thought Xorg obsoleted thatby tqk - [OLD] - Installed Mode
"Thanks, very much. Cool system. " Hi. Replying to my own post, I stand by what I said above. Did I pay for ELive? I want to. How do I find out? I've just booted -new-kernel on the above, and it appears to work swimmingly (well, not my serial mouse, but that's xorg; I know how to fix). Did I pay? Thanks mon.by tqk - Good Experiencies

This's really nice. It's a Compaq Evo loaded to the gills, but it's had a lot of trouble with X Window lately (neither Debian's stable or testing grok the video correctly, and I can find no way to correct it there). Only Knoppix' and ELive's X work on it. "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" has no effect. Classic "Debian Gotcha". ELive's Xby tqk - Good Experiencies
