Re: Salix Xfce 15.0beta1

I wasn't implying the default panel size should be changed. I was just pointing out what I see at panel size 30 and the icon I would expect to see appeared at size 36. I am merely trying to give Gapan a point of reference so he could understand what I was referring to. I agree with you as to the cau...

Xfce panel size

The default panel row size of 30, changed Web Browser icon to something that is hard to decipher. If you change the panel row size to 36, the Web Browser icon returns to what I consider normal.

Re: Salix Xfce 15.0alpha2

Hi! I installed salix with a base packages list. It does not contain NetworkManager. I think it should be in base installation, too. I agree. Installing Salix on a laptop would require Ethernet connection otherwise, just to install NetworkManager (or another application for that purpose). Given lap...

Hyper-V Gen2 (UEFI) Problems -With the alpha2 ISO, it boots and allows me to install Salix (did a Core install). -On reboot, I briefly see "elilo loading kernel..." or something to that effect since it goes so fast before Hyper-V shuts the VM down. Slackware 15 (using UEFI) works with Hype...

Re: Salix 15 Alpha 1 issues/feedback

This is by design. It has been like that since forever. In Full mode you get NetworkManager, which connects automatically to wired networks and can be used to configure both wired and wireless networks after installation. In Basic mode, it's not there, so we have to use the old school scripts to co...
