2.. how does one use the "sbopkg" tool on salix

Do a search in these forums. You'll need to edit the sbopkg script to have it working in Salix. Change one line actually.

Oh yes.... I forgot about that.

If you are using Salix 13.1, an upgrade should add this new utility to your system menu.

Code: Select all

su -
slapt-get -u
slapt-get --upgrade

hi, guys i fancied trying out some games an i installed megaglest from http://sourceforge.net/projects/megaglest/

the game however does not work no doubt im missing some dependencies but since playin with a few other game in between i have decide that im more of a console gamer so all my game have been uninstall except for megaglest as i cant use the package manager what other commands can i use or is it just as easy to delete any file within the associated folder

How did you install it?
If you did the "make" and "make install" way you can try "make uninstall".
If you are just running it from the folder you can delete the folder.
