[Edit] What is it with Opera and printing? I bring up my newspaper, ask to print Page 1 and get Pages 1-12.

I do it in Firefox and get exactly the page I asked for.

Only thing so far....... mtPaint screen capture doesn't launch but it does launch as mtPaint image editor.

[James C]

For what it's worth. immediately after completing above post , Rox froze up and wouldn't respond..... upon killing the process I lost the entire desktop (wallpaper,icons and drive icons)........ restarting X brought things back to normal though.

On to more testing.

[01micko]

I removed mtpaintsnapshot.sh, but forgot the .desktop file. It will be removed.

Thanks

Any errors about rox recorded in the logs?

[James C]

Hardware test on an Intel box..... all working.

Installed Firefox from the Slackware repo. No menu entry.
Desktup file is in /usr/share/applications but "fixmenus" doesn't work. Good news though, Firefox 15.0.1 appears to work fine....... just put an icon on the desktop.

[01micko]

James, can you post the contents of Firefox.desktop please? Should be able to work around that one. EDIT: nevermind I d'loaded it

Turns out to be a woof bug. (PPM). The category (stock) is Network, PPM replaces that with X-Internet-browser . Why on earth it doesn't just replace it with WebBrowser is beyond me, Seamonkey will be the same. One thing can be said about Slackware, consistent!

[01micko]

see above
