This is a very nice picture for the wallpaper. It got me interested in knowing what it was. I found this, I hope I'm right.

For a moment, I got confused by the blue outline of the bridge in the wallpaper. But I guess it was afternoon when ...

In Geany press [SHIFT][CTRL][V]. Cannot do that on my system.

I also don't want Devuan to be the base of anything else. CROWZ, Gnuinos and three others are more than enough. Even without "systemd" I don't recommend it to anyone. If only "Chimaera" worked well enough because the ISO's are still widely available while those for Debian "Bullseye" are not. But I'd ...

Slackel is based on slackware current. I tried to build freebasic on slackel but build failed. So as gapan said try freebasic from salix extra repo.

I'm on Slackel v7.6 Openbox, with Linux kernel v6.1.41.

I have not found a fix specific to Slackware v15. Looked in "linuxquestions-dot-org", there's a thread for a fix but it's from 2016. The Freebasic forums are too Windows and Ubuntu focused ...

So i suggest do not use Slackel. If this problem is critical for you. There are so many distributions to use.
Slackel is for my own personal use and also is available for free for anyone find it useful.


Hi djemos. Thank you for your assistance, as many times in the past.

But I never wanted ...

I was forced to reinstall Slackel for the fifth time because I can never be an "intermediate" Linux user, I'm trying to be but I suck. I had to take down the previous one because there was a serious conflict between PCManFM and Engrampa on an archive I tried to extract from. It wasn't ZIP nor TAR.GZ ...

Did you do this to "kill" it?
thunar --quit

Because using "killall" or forcibly ending a program through the Task Manager is not recommended.

Otherwise it might have to do with disk space almost full or caches needing to be cleaned. You didn't give more information about your system which causes ...

I used the installer built into the Live ISO to install onto a USB thumbdrive. The thumbdrive never booted correctly. The initrd doesn't detect any USB storage devices during bootup. Are you saying I need to use a different method to install onto a USB thumbdrive? I know there's a tool to copy the ...
