Hi
Thanks sasaqqdan.
The next version will also include a fix for ntfs-3g and usb drives should mount correctly every time.
Cheers

Hi everybody
So how is the latest Startmount-0.1.0 working for you?
Do you like the new gui?
Do you like the old gui?
What can we do to improve this app for you?
Our ideas are to add an entry for custom commands at startup and improve on the user interface. Would you like that?
Are there any other features you would like?
All comments are appreciated.
Thank you.
Cheers

What a great app!
Previously I had been told to hardcode the automount of a device to rc.local:
I just loaded your v 0.1.0 and it looks great!
Question: It appears to only recognize apps that were loaded by default, none of the add-on apps appear in the list, e.g. Oxygen Office or Seamonkey 2 or Gimp. Is there a way to be sure that it picks those up, please?
Note: Does it only see apps that are inside of pup_save? I tend to put as much outside of that due to past problems with personal storage space, etc.

Hi Edoc,
Default apps is a deliberate choice to be able to read easily all apps in one place as installed to a users puppy variant.
It will read the default apps in 214, 421, 431 as well as Quirky etc and list those as different, it does this on each startup of the Startmount program gui. So if the user changes the default app it changes the list.
However we are planning an entry box facility to allow users to enter apps of choice.
Half the fun is anticipating the various uses the user will put it to and to catch the write to file correctly for each use.

Sure appreciate all of your work on this! It definitely makes Puppy more user-friendly.
Will stand-by for your next updates re. non-default apps.

ok, that tells me 2 possibilities,
What should happen is that 2 of your drives should show up.
I'm guessing you are running off a usb stick?
Either that or we have a problem with reiserfs.
Which drive is puppy installed?

hmmm, different shell? just the "sh-3.00#" prompt threw me, never saw that one on any puppy after 4.0.
Ok seems the usb install may be the cause, it is experimental, well seems experiment returned negative results, ok we will find a solution, hopefully for the next version.
Thanks
One more thing, do you get the splash screen warning that you are running a usb install?
