Re: changing default search engine in Firefox

Old thread, but this is still an issue. I upgraded Firefox via Gslapt to 24.2.0 and this upgrade changed the default search engine to DuckDuckGo (which I don't want). Changing the bout:config browser.search.defaultenginename value to another search engine works for the length of the session, but onc...

Re: Weird X issue...now Wicd Network Manager window on star

Yes. Okay, I figured it out. I think Wicd was updated at some point after I installed Salix, at which point it was no longer compatible with a Fluxbox feature that starts apps "in the background" upon loading of Fluxbox. This is controlled by adding a space and a "&" after th...

[SOLVED]X issue...now Wicd Network Manager window on startup

This is strange... I had put my computer into Suspend mode...then tried to start it up again. I got a black screen and the mouse cursor, that was it. I didn't know how to get my windows and everything back, so I turned off the computer. Then I turned it on again. When I logged in, the Wicd Network M...

Where is sourcery?

Hello, I was reading this post http://forum.salixos.org/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=5061 and I have one of the same issues as that poster: no Sourcery. I installed Salix from a Salix Fluxbox Live CD. To be clear, I do have slapt-get. When I search Gslapt or slapt-get for "sourcery" I do not g...

Re: sound through headphone jack but not through speakers

Thank you! I was playing around with alsamixer a little bit before I posted, but it was late. Anyways, I'm not sure if I had to change the default card and if I actually did or not, but now I see that the speakers were muted. Unmuting them fixed it. Thanks again! I don't remember seeing that anythin...

[SOLVED] sound through headphone jack...not through speakers

Hi there, I installed Salix OS recently on a kind of whim...I had used a fluxbox-esque shell for Microsoft Windows before, and installed Ubuntu before, both a long time ago. At that time I didn't know much about the command line. Now I'm a bit more familiar with the MS-DOS command line, and to a muc...
