Re: Update kills XFCE

You cannot upgrade glibc, kernel-firmware, kernel packages from gslapt.
use slapt-get in a terminal
sudo slapt-get -i glibc

It is not glibc. Something else went wrong.

Re: Salix15-Live from USB does not boot

In an UEFI system you get the elilo menu. The yellow cursor is already set to Boot: cyan text box, where you can type runlevel=3 or whatever.
If you cannot type in the text box then i do not know what is going on with your keyboard.

Re: Salix15-Live from USB does not boot

Obvious difference:
I get a graphical menu whereas on the laptop all is text.
This is the syslinux boot menu. It is enabled when boot to a system without UEFI/EFI.

Do I need to tweak BIOS or so?

In my laptop i have disabled secure boot and i plug in the salix live usb and press power button ...

Re: Salix15-Live from USB does not boot

well, I see the command line you are reffering to but whatever key I tried, I cannot get there.
Don't have to go there. Just type runlevel=3 press the buttons of keyboard.
You will see the text appeared there. :)
