I'm talking about the drive icons.

So am I. My frugal install shows a little circle with an X through it on the drive icon for the boot partition. Does your full install show nothing at all?

Not Working

Abiword Help
Gnumeric Help

Yes, they never do. I tried but they seem to need the whole gnome Yelp system. Open to suggestions. A package in PPM would be good, if it worked. Any takers?

Oh, I found it. It worked! Does it not work under some circumstances?

So am I. My frugal install shows a little circle with an X through it on the drive icon for the boot partition. Does your full install show nothing at all?

Yes; no indicator on any drive icon unless I click-mount it.
Unmounting the drive in use does not give a warning about
"drive in use, can not be unmounted".

Edit:

If I boot from usb, I don't see a usb icon unless I start pmount-mutt;
then it appears with an indicator.
It does give the warning about removing flash drive though.

here is a patch file that should fix the problem with printing PDF files. Please test it and report.

Worked for me with Cups-pdf. Thanks rcrsn51. That's a big contribution.

It printed a U.S. Income Tax form from http://www.irs.ustreas.gov/pub/irs-pdf/fw4.pdf

And it printed an ISO chart from http://www.graphics.cornell.edu/~westin ... chart.html

Can some people please install rcrsn51's pet on p. 25 just to test that it doesn't have any side effects? Thanks.

I have replaced my original version with shinobar's improved version, which provides better substitutions for some missing fonts.

Just installed the font-patch PET and PDF is working fine.

Lucid 5.1 with 003 update Frugal ext3 (... and a partridge in a pear tree ...)

THANKS!

[Jim1911]

Frugal installation of 222, everything works as expected, no problems. It's solid on my hardware. Installed over 20 extras, ie. OpenOffice, Thunderbird, Firefox4, Amarok, Bibletime, numlockX, pwidgets, wbar, wine, eSword, java, foxitreader, games, etc. All work fine.

Cheers,
Jim

This is just a test install but I believe this card needs the 71.86.xx Nvidia driver.

Full install is on sda2.......no indication of such.

Otherwise,everything appears to be working..........

EDIT:
For accuracies sake, I tried the 96.43.16 and 173.14.25 drivers......X wouldn't start with either.
Working good (no acceleration) with the nv driver though.

SeaMonkey w/ 2 tabs open......................

Installed 222 to a usb flash drive using bootflash in 222.
On first boot with flash drive wired network is connected.
Installed nvidia driver in quickpet.

Installed Google Earth in quickpet.
Ran setup wizards and rebooted to create save file.
It works as expected.

I find the Lucid/luci numbering extremely confusing.

Is the double-naming and numbering for the same product really necessary?

Anyhow, is luci-222 the same as Lucid 5.1 with 003 installed, or ???

In answer to your last question, no.

The" Luci" releases are, as the thread title states, testing releases.There needs to be a simple way to differentiate between testing versions and stable release versions so different names.
AFAIK, the next stable release (non testing) will be 5.1.1, when testing is completed.

playdayz or 01micko can answer better, but that's my understanding of it.

[rjbrewer]

Dug another old box off the shelf to test a full install of Luci-222.

I checked a full install of 218; it had an indicator on the drive.
Something happened after that test version.
