Do you have that xhost line in the user's ~.bashrc?

Just before I go to sleep - we again got the problem that root can't
run GUI apps on user's X.

man xhost, anyone?

Yeah... the current ISO's dont have the kernel src package for some reason.
We need to get them in there.
I also need them for vbox guest additions, and have to dload every
time I need them :(

Sorry for so many letters, just wanted to copy-paste nvidia drivers' error:

ERROR: The kernel header file
'/lib/modules/2.6.27.12/build/include/linux/version.h' does not exist.
The most likely reason for this is that the kernel source files in
'/lib/modules/2.6.27.12/build' have not been configured.

I'm not a pro in packaging kernels, I'm currently make modules && make
modules_install to make nVidia drivers install, but it is a major
issue to deal with.

Ok, my KDE troubles were combined from two things: weird ownership on
~/.Xdefaults and 8600GT running on outdated "nv" driver from Xorg
1.4.2.

So I downloaded drivers from nVidia - but wtf? Two CDs, but no
kernel-headers. That's really bad.

Attached.

we're not doing anything to the root home in particular, as we're only
setting the root password, everything else comes from pre-configured
home for root I guess.

I will get these permissions set as described above. Unless someone
else suggests differently by the end of the day.

I need you to do me a favor, boot up the ISO, cd or whatever you're booting.
when the installer loads up, open a terminal and show me the output of probepart
also show me the output of os-prober

Thanks

Hmm, nevermind the kde, should be kdm thing, as it dies horribly when
I try to run fluxbox too.
I've switched to vesa drivers, instead of nv - well, now it isn't
dying, window managers just don't start.
Ok, investigating...

Out of 4 partitions on sda, four on hda and three on hdb, only hda
partitions were shown for me. Though I'll retry it.

Emm, I was trying to set my /dev/sda3 as /mnt/win_d, particularly.

Just combine that "Ok, I have another disk" with eject command.

Does new VasmCC provide you with graphical xorg options editor?
If it does, just launch it after first boot. On bare xorg, without any
wm, if you need.

I don't think that chowning to vanger.vanger is a good idea. It should be:
if sAccntName=="root" then chown -R root:root /mnt/target/root
  else chown -R sAccntName:users /mnt/target/home/sAccntName && chmod
755 /mnt/target/home/sAccntName
I don't think it's safe to chmod -R 755, people may have some
installed apps there.

Actually, the installer should list all of your partitions. You should
be able to see their current fs to the very right of the listing
entry.
You cannot select a linux mount point like /, /usr, /opt for it
without formatting. The installer will actually warn you about this,
and will only let you select /mnt/xyz[0-9] for it.

We do need to debug the dual cd thing... I have not had chance to test
this on real hardware, so I really dont know how accurate the code is.
HOpe to get some time by the end of the week to test some more. Buf if
I could get some more input from other users if this does/does not
work for you all, also, the type of hardware involved... Desktop box /
laptop cdrom units?

I would vote for vanger's suggestion of using the xorg.conf created
during installation, except for one thing.
The initrd that boots for the installer is very limited, module wise,
so your video will not always be the best using whatever was used
during installation to run the installed system, but I think it's
worth a shot.

About the permissions problem. I'm going to need you guys to tell me
how to set these
Here is a link to the code that sets these, but I'm not sure if this
is enough http://vlcore.vectorlinux.com/trac/vinstall/browser/branches/speedy/MdlMain.module#L600
basically, what that does is this "chown -R <user>:<user>
/mnt/target/home/<user>"

Let me know what I'm missing here, and I'll take care of it.

#6 is beyond the installer, so I'll leave that one along.

Hi, guys. Here's my take.

Installer isn't that bad, it's even nice. But:
1) You can't select Windows partitions in fstab in installer, only
Linux partitions are available to choose mountpoint for.
2) I've got a minor misunderstanding, when installer asked my for
second disc - tray was locked. Then I pressed ok, i have another disc,
tray was unlocked and I could insert disc two.
3) Also bootloader install is fucked up. It didn't detect FreeBSD,
didn't detect Windows XP (which old installer did). It found only VL I
installed and detected it as "Slackware 12.1_". And I couldn't find a
way to add another OS in bootloader in installer.

Now the actual run:
4) When you start VL from HDD first time, you have to configure X
again. Why won't it use Xorg.conf generated while starting up the
installer?
5) I have used my old /home partition, and /home/vanger appeared to be
chowned to 1000.none and chmodded to 700. That is really bad, if user
already has an old user directory, it should be chmodded and chowned
properly by installer.
6) SHOWTOPPER
When you try to start up KDE4, you get an xmessage "kstartupconfig4
does not exist or fails. Th". And when you press "ok", everything
horribly-horribly dies in some wildly-coloured blinking text-mode
garbage.

Why won't we use KDE 4.3.0?
As I see, release would be in a month, KDE 4.2.3 will look too
old-fashioned by that time. I think, we should switch to KDE 4.3.0 as
fast as possible, to give it more extensive testing (and to be able to
blame some bugs on KDE devs).
Also, we won't need to debug why our current 4.2.3 dies.

The back button should definitely not be enabled on bootloader config
I'll get on it rihght now.

Hello,

2 things:
-Gslapt would not start (console mentioned directory missing or similar)
-Could not find VasmCC - perhaps "by design"? (could only find vasm, not vasmCC)

Cheers, newt

Guys, On this svn revision of the code, there has been a significant
change to the CD2 bulk installation.

The first CD should still be fine.
I'm in the process of trying to upload a new ISO that Uelsk8s has
fixed to reflect this change.

DESCRIPTION OF THE CHANGE:
We needed to add a description for the bulks included in the 2nd cd
for installation. The format of these bulk files has changed in the
following format:
Line1 of each bulk for CD2 bulks ONLY is designated for a description
string. The description string is to be written just like you want it
shown in the installer. No variables, quotation marks or anything
needed.

Packages to be installed for each bulk need to start getting listed at
line 2 and so on. See example below

BULK: Office

Complete set of office and productivity tools.
openoffice.org
abiword
gnumeric
koffice

For future ISO's and deltas, keep this in mind.
This means that if you by mistake use the first line on a BULK on CD2
for a package name, THIS PACKAGE WILL NOT GET INSTALLED!!!!.

Well, I just grabbed this and ran it. Here are my results

Custom installation, ignoring CD2 contents on purpose (i'm lazy like that) ;)

Installation went flawlessly
grub setup was flawless (no other os's on this vm). There is a problem
running grub2 on a VM, the boot menu lags for a while... but that's
only on VM is it's a grub problem not a VL problem, so we'll leave
that alone.
root and user passwords are set, and system boots just fine.

Again, I have another problem doing this on a VBox VM, but I've had it
ever since the first alpha was released.
KDE wont start. I see the KDM login, so I put my use name and password
and it loads the desktop. Flashes before my eyes for like 5 seconds,
and then, it's back to KDM.

The only way to get around this that I know of, is to install the VBox
Guest additions. Then I get the desktop.

Other than that, it's good here.

But please, dont believe me... the thing may just know it's me and be
on it's best behaviour, so we need some outsiders to test this out.

Lets give these iso's a try I think we are ready for a public release. I encourage all of our internal developers to please try and report any show stoppers before we go public with these. Hopefully all is ok but just to be safe lets go one more time. Just a reminder there is no text installer that is usable we are aiming for a very high success rate on the gui installer.
The iso's are here:
ftp://ftp-osl.osuosl.org/pub/vectorlinux/Uelsk8s/test/VL6.0-SOHO-A1.9.22.iso
ftp://ftp-osl.osuosl.org/pub/vectorlinux/Uelsk8s/test/VL6.0-SOHO-A1.9.22-CD2.iso
there are deltas up in the same directory if you have the previous A1.9.21 iso's

good hunting!

Cheers,
Robert

Oops!

The password is "vector". 
It can also be found by opening the file on the desktop named "PASSWORDS" ;-)

Hello,

That's all. Everything I found was very minor and not a deal breaker - though I
did not test the install options usb/hdd/etc. This feels like a very nice live
distro to me; quick to boot, quick to desktop, very responsive, plenty of packages
to work with. Very good job to all involved!!

Cheers, newt

Hello,

VGA=791 mode

At login screen (with ascii art), the usernames and password are in a long run-on
sentence which makes them hard to 1) see, and 2) to determine usernames and
password. I think it would look better like:

VL-LIVE Brought to you by Vector-Linux
vector.linux.net user: vl password: vector
vector.linux.net user: root password: vector

or even like this:

VL-LIVE Brought to you by Vector-Linux
vector.linux.net
user: vl password: vector
user: root password: vector

Just an idea. The information is all there, just hard to see and determine what's what.

Hello,

A couple more minor things:

One comment so far: Opera starts from an 'unclean' state. Generally, Opera's first
use displays the EULA and then continues to load the browser. The version on the
live CD begins from a previously used session.

That's it so far.

Cheers, newt

Hello,

There is a 'PASSWORDS' document on the desktop with the passwords that worked for
me.

I've only test one boot option but it worked great. I'll try the remaining boot
options and report back. Good work guys and gals!!

Cheers, newt
