TahrPup 5.8.4
Rfunning from a Slacko64 distro with QEMU V2 and @MikeB's "Launch" utility (see below). No JOY in getting to desktop. TahrPUP cannot find a suitable driver on its own.
In order to get to desktop, currently, we are required to enter "-vga std" on the Extra Parameters line of the Launcher to force the virtual machine into VESA mode.
This PUP runs faster in a KVMguest than in native mode.

Hi, 666philb.
In your version 5.8.3, I seem to be getting a screen refresh (sort of a very
rapid white line "scan" across the screen) every 20 seconds or so. That
didn't happen in the previous versions. Have you changed the Xorg version
or the default nvidia driver in this version?
Otherwise, all good.
BFN.

ah i saw that on facebook !. I was just visiting. I will try it. Abiword 2.8.6 is a right choice, tell it to musher0.

I don't know this guy pelo! Abiword 2.8.6 is a wrong choice, considering
abiword is now at version 3.0.0.
@pelo:
Have you been tanking up on this wonderful Provençal pastis again?
Don't start any rumors, now: how could I know your "housewife"? We
(you and I, and your "housewife" and I) are one ocean and one sea apart
(the Atlantic plus the Mediterranean). You mean your maid, right? Not
your wife! Unless my ex French-from-France girlfriend Jeanne is now
shagging up with you?
Anyway, please do not use my nickname to validate your opinions! Your
opinions are YOUR opinions! Period.

the kernel has changed in this version and probably (hopefully ) it's to do with that.
you can change back to the older kernel (or try a newer) to see if that resolves it ... kernels here https://www.dropbox.com/sh/czf7b44ob03v ... DYR1PaDpca unzip the kernel and copy the vmlinuz and zdrv.sfs over the installed ones .. then reboot

thanks for finding that ... i was wondering which deb was causing that! ... just uninstall it and your keyboard should come back (maybe need reboot) & work-rave should work without it.bohocmasni wrote:hi!
I have a problem:
after installing xkb-data_2.10.1-1ubuntu1_all.deb from ubuntu repo, (and after X restart) my keyboard doesn't work any more.
It is a dependency for workrave.
it'll need to be blacklisted .. i'll put a fix in quickpet

I had some save file issues from USB (ext2) install. At shutdown, it hung. After rebooting it worked fine until the auto 30 minute save (would you consider defaulting it to zero in future updates?).
