Maybe, but --update does not upgrade any packages, it just downloads repository information, so it doesn't make sense to display package upgrade information. I realize that, but using apt-get/aptitude update under Debian, you don't have to go through with the upgrade option if there are no updates ...

I'll look it up. I've never heard of an ESR version of Firefox. In any case, this doesn't appear to be as easy to do as my experience under CrunchBang. So, I'll take the easy way out on this and use the version from the Salix repos. I've spent way too much time trying to figure out how to get Flash ...

I don't think I've been following DB that long. I used to be a SecondNatureCD and Deviant Art fan, but I exclusively use DB wallpapers now, especially with all of the different resolutions offered.

That's not what --update does. You're thinking about --upgrade. I was comparing to apt-get/aptitude under Debian. There is no --autoclean option. And it doesn't make sense to have one. If you do a slapt-get --help at the command line, --autoclean is referenced as an option. So is it safe to say tha...

Flash is installed manually under Debian and updated that way as well, or at least that's the way I've learned it; reference the thread on the CrunchBang forums above. ...

Has anyone successfully installed and used LightDM in place of GDM under Salix 14.1 64-bit? If so, mind sharing how you did it?

01) When a user runs slapt-get --update , the results should indicate the number of new packages to be updated; reference functionality of agt-get update or aptitude update . 02) When a user runs slapt-get --autoclean , a message should be displayed indicating how much disk space was freed; referenc...

I'm disappointed to hear that. Hmmm...there's still one of the BSD spins I could try, but I've read that BSD does not use EXT file systems, so I'd have to possibly look at other methods of setting up shared data partitions. If nothing else, I can always use Salix as my second Linux distro in a dual-...

Head on over to Digital Blasphemy and checkout some of the great art work by Ryan Bliss. Some freebies are offered, but you have to become a member to access all of the collections. If you really like the art work, I recommend shelling out for a lifetime membership.
