Slacko 5.7 - March 2014 Subject description: bug reports and comments |
|
After many months of work, stresses, set backs, hassles and fun.. I can finally announce the release of
Slacko 5.7
Visit the Download page.
EDIT: above link is broken for now. See it HERE.
Official release notes: here
Further notes: here.
It is available in NON pae 5.7 and PAE 5.7.0. The devx for respective versions (important only because they contain respective kernel headers) is available from the main download area. The kernel sources are in the pet_packages-slacko14 repository at your favourite mirror (and should download ok with the inbuilt sfs manager).
Enjoy!

Almost 2 am so too late for lengthy reports but successful fresh manual frugal install on the AMD box and a successful upgrade from 5.6.8 to 5.7 on the Intel box w/everything working.

Why is cdrdao included ?
I can't see any pre-installed apps relying on it.
Code: | # cdrdao
Cdrdao version 1.2.3 - (C) Andreas Mueller <andreas@daneb.de> |
...No bugs so far

I couldnt resist. Yeah. I had to download Slacko.
I opened an pdf and I used the search with Ctrl + F....as I always do. And....it seems the old bug is there....
Or is it just me.
Fine job anyway. The icon work by Zigbert is really fantastic !
And the whole Slacko of course.

New frugal install complete on hp 6730b laptop. No bugs found with my softwares. Newly compiled motion, mtools, v4l-utils. I uploaded motion, I think the only newly compiled needed, in Security section of Additional Software. I got aware of new feature of lighencrypted slackosaves' filesystem check at boot. Installed Wxcam by PPM: extra install needed as for slacko 5.6:
http://repository.slacky.eu/slackware-14.0/libraries/libmspack/0.3alpha/
Many thanks.
EDIT: got aware of new Pavrecord in Multimedia menu. Wxcam not needed.
