Hello, I point out that in my Lenovo laptop I installed the rc2 version, but it is a problem that persists since the Alpha version: on reboot everything works, except that it does not have the options to suspend and hibernate. I tried to reinstall upower but nothing to do. From the terminal if I do loginctl suspend nothing happens... Thanks
Update: by deleting the Salix-polkit-settings package the suspension icons reappear and work normally!
This shouldn't be the case. Is your user a member of the "power" group?

sbopkg is an excellent tool for Slackware, a true Swiss army knife, but my question here is, slapt-src is installed on Salix and can also be used to install software from slackbuilds, right @gapan?
Yes, slapt-src is the default tool to interact with SBo in Salix.

Downloaded and testing. Everything seems fine, easy and fast installation, all my libraries work as expected. Still testing other things. I noticed the little tool
slkbuild-postgen is missing (useful for packagers). I am not sure if that's intentional, and it's not a big deal anyway, but I see no reason why it's not in the repos.
Because laprjns hasn't submitted it yet. But it probably needs no update and I can just use the package in 14.2. I'll see to it.
I don't thing that's a problem. One is a generic "file manager" entry. The other one is a specific thunar entry. If you decide to use a different file manager as default in xfce for some reason, the generic one will open the new new file manager, while the other (the purple one) will always launch thunar.
Are you using the salix package or the flatpak. I don't use VLC so I don't know, maybe the extension is already included? And could it be a bug with the extension?
I see. It seems the "add item" xfce tool does not respect the "NotShowIn" desktop file entries as it should. But that's not something that we can fix here.

Development tools like GTK Demo, Icon Browser and Widget Factory don't have Window controls(Minimixze,Maximaze,Close buttons), is this normal ?:

These are all GTK4 apps. GTK4 is a mess...

Since Libreoffice is installed by default could
locales manage to install
libreoffice-l10n localization by default such as e.g: Firefox. ?
The reason we haven't the included is because the libreoffice-l10n packages are just too big. But maybe this was more of a concern when we were trying to fit the iso into 700MB for being written on a CD.

This is weird. Was this a fresh installation? Did you reuse your home directory from a different distribution maybe? In any case, reinstall the package and see if commenting out this part from it works for you:
Code: Select all
polkit.addRule(function(action, subject) {
if (action.id == "org.xfce.power.xfce4-pm-helper" &&
subject.active == true && subject.local == true &&
subject.isInGroup("power")) {
return polkit.Result.YES;
}
return polkit.Result.NOT_HANDLED;
});

All that part.
Changed and restarted but nothing (modified /usr/share/polkit-1/rules.d/40-org.xfce-power.rules). The sleep icons are not there. If from the terminal I write loginctl suspend, it asks me for password....

I'm sorry, but that doesn't make sense to me at all. What happens if you delete that file completely?

with that file it does not give me any sleep option in xfce4-power-manager nor in xfce4-logout. If I remove it they reappear...
