Re: Problem with Vbox Guest Additions
@djemos, thanks for making the effort to build the package. I installed per your instructions, and it installed okay. Unfortunately, the boot process is still throwing (different) errors. As the system runs fine once booted, including the vbox guest additions, this now appears to be more of a ...

Re: Problem with Vbox Guest Additions
Certainly willing to do that. However, in the package manager, all of the kernel-source packages listed (there are four of them) are locked, and 5.15.63 is not one of them! How would I go about installing 5.15.63?

Problem with Vbox Guest Additions
Hi. Not sure if this is a Salix problem, but it may be. I'm running Salix64 15, which I installed several months ago from the file salix64-xfce-15.0.iso, in a VirtualBox VM. I've also installed, for testing of various features, several other distros in the same setup, and none of them have had the ...

Re: ls options
Thanks. For now, I had: export LANG=en_XC.utf8 export LC_COLLATE=en_XC.utf8 in ~/.profile, which of course affected my account only (the second one was necessary, as with only the first one, LC_COLLATE was being overridden by /etc/profile.d/lang.sh). If I put it in /etc/profile.d/lang.sh, that will ...

Re: ls options
So, the collating order was still not what I desired it to be, which is: 1. to have directories listed first, then files (this is simply an 'ls' option) 2. within each of those two groups (directories/files) to have .dot files listed first, then non-dot files 3. to have each of those groups be case ...

[SOLVED] Re: New xfce4-terminal package.
The package manager said no updates available. I'll just leave those marked as EXCLUDE. All's good now. Thanks for all your help. Marked as solved.

Re: New xfce4-terminal package.
Thank you. You (or someone) had mentioned it was a good idea to save local packages, which I did. I had no idea where to put them, so I had created the directory /usr/local/pkg/, and moved them there from /tmp/, and still have them as a result. The /var/log/packages listing did indeed show the old ...

Re: ls options
So, I found the answer to the original question. The difference between the two distros was one of the locale settings. In Salix, LC_COLLATE=C was set, while in the other distro it was LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8". Changing Salix to LC_COLLATE=en_US.utf8 (to match the other LC_ variables in Salix; it ...
