Re: VirtualBox Open Source Edition

Re: VirtualBox Open Source Edition

I tried this and ran into a problem. I downloaded and installed from the op's link. When I run it via the menu I get the main window and then the program freezes. If I run from cli, either root or user, I get the following: john|[~] $ virtualbox WARNING: The vboxdrv kernel module is not loaded. Eith...

Re: question on slkbuild

I do thank you for the help, I would still be using the older version without it. Curious why they used a dash in a slightly improved version.

Re: question on slkbuild

Thanks for your help. The only way I could get it to build was by making the pkgver=0.5.1 and in the source I specified 0.5.1-2.tar.gz. Left the rest of the slkbuild file as it was. It makes the newest version but names it 0.5.1. I wonder if I post it to the repository if it will work or not. thanks...

Re: question on slkbuild

Thanks, but I still don't have it right. I changed the pkgver but I didn't change the source so it would download, then I went down and changed this line "cd $startdir/src/$pkgname-$pkgver" to "cd $startdir/src/$pkgname-0.5.1.2". That gave this error: root[iptux]# slkbuild -X Aut...

question on slkbuild

I found a program that I would like to build but I have a problem. The version number has a dash (0.5.1-2) and when I put that in slkbuild it is not accepted. I have built an older version (4.5) but would like to to the latest of course :). I even tried downloading the file and renaming it but still...

Re: SalixOS tshirt ?

Is there anyway to get a copy of this design. I would like to go to a local business and have a couple of shirts made for myself and my wife (yes she also has Salix on her laptop :) )

Thanks,

Re: SalixOS tshirt ?

I know this is late but I like the green one and the black one. Is this going to be available?
