I came up with, more or less the same idea. I installed x-tahr to a fresh USB drive, copied the unaltered /usr/bin/wmpoweroff script to the original x-tahr USB, and then rebooted into said original x-tahr USB.

I examined the script you mentioned, and commented out the lines suggested. The caveat, the lines mentioned show up as 41-45, in my script (and there's an extra line).

Both use a 1.6 GHz atom processor, with hyperthreading, so maybe it's the processor, or maybe I just need to reinstall and try again. I've had it happen with both kernels, and my internet is about 4 ...

The other problem I've had is the save file seems not to load at boot. Has anyone else had either of these issues??? Edit: Pay no attention to the noob. I had Stud...

i have no problem with developers who are defensive. hell, i'm defensive. that said, i've tried the newer versions of Alpha OS, and found them buggy as hell. maybe the earlier spins worked well, i don't know. i don't have a problem with Arch, however, it's my primary OS.
