Re: [Vectorlinux-devel] VL6.0-SOHO-A1.9.21

Hello,

Preamble: updated to revision 697; minimal install with light-desktop option

That's great news about the back/next errors I was receiving. I just tested it and
cannot reproduce them. Great job!!

I also checked the bootloader setup page on a smaller resolution than your and it
also looks to be fixed. I resized the window and the drop-downs scaled accordingly
as well. Fantastic!

Good to know about the grub issue. I wonder if you could simply deactivate/disable
the label field (i.e. gray it out). Kind of an 'out of sight out of mind thing'.
Not a big deal at all, just a thought. I DO like how the label indicates vector
now, and the 'Saving configuration' blue bar looks good too!

2 minor things:

When I first reached the manual partition selection screen (reusing existing
partitions) there were 9 partitions listed, but I only have 3 created. The 3 were
duplicated 3 times = 9 partitions. I clicked back and next, everything showed
correctly this time. I'll try to reproduce this to see if 1) I can, and 2) I can
capture what's in the terminal log when this happens.

Spelling: When clicking the checkmark next to 'X11' the warning message has
'conponent' misspelled. The warning message when clicking the 'Un-Select All'
button is different and spelled correctly.

Services failed: avahi (2), vmware, wifi-radar

Could not start light-desktop gui. X failed to start properly. Could be a vmware
issue though because I see "(WW) VMWARE(0): Failed to set up write-combining
range"

I'll try this install again later with full KDE installation to check the user
account situation and X, but I suspect X will work fine with full install.

Cheers, newt
