Re: Salix Xfce 14.2

I just wanted to stop by today to say ( again ), I am loving Salix 14.2, enough that I even donated last night. After finally retiring a 13-year-old HP Penitum M ( non-PAE ) 32-bit 12" laptop that was running the old 14.1 Fluxbox edition ( and had started on version 13 ), I moved on to a newer ...

Re: "Restart" "Shut Down" "Suspend" "Hibernate" grayed out

Mark this one [SOLVED]... I figured it was something easy. You were both correct. My user account did not have rights to "power", so a quick usermod -G power {username} did the trick. I did, in fact, replace all my settings files when using dotnew during the upgrade process. I was lazy and...
