Hi, I'm installed on hd (hda1) DamnSmall 0.6.3 on pentium mmx 200 mhz with 3 gb hd and 32 mb ram... GREAT OS!!!
During installation process I chose no multiuser option (at startup damnsmall go directly into X and user damnsmall); installation ask me a password for user damnsmall, and I press return twice (no password); install lilo, and all is ok.
I have this problems:

1) I change the keyboard layout from control panel but "it" support don't work. I try to change the /etc/XF86config file, but the keyboard layout at startup is "us". which file I edit to have a italian keyboard layout at startup?

2) How to make "full enhanched desktop" mode at startup, and don't start dillo page with damnsmall manual? I follow the http://damnsmalllinux.org/cgi-bin....10;t=85 instruction but don't work...

Thanks!!

Silvio from Turin (north Italy)

Can't help you with # 1, but I can with #2

In your /home/damnsmall directory is a file called .xinitrc

open this file with a text editor and remark out the line that includes dillo by putting a # and space at the start of it.

Also, put this line at the end of the file

enhance &

don't forget to hit return after the "&" to produce a line feed.

the next time you login, you will not see dillo and the desktop will be enhanced.

Hi, I try to change the xinitrc... dillo is disappear, but don't have enhanced desktop. this is my xinitrc file in home/damnsmall directory.

# put X windows programs that you want started here.
# Be sure to add at the end of each command the &
grep enhance /proc/cmdline >/dev/null
if [ $? == 0 ]; then
enhance &>/dev/null &
fi
# dillo -f /usr/share/doc/damnsmall/getting_started.html &>/dev/null &
fluxbox
enhance &

I'm try, in the last line, the command "enhance &>/dev/null" but nothing...

try this
# put X windows programs that you want started here.
# Be sure to add at the end of each command the &
#grep enhance /proc/cmdline >/dev/null
#if [ $? == 0 ]; then
enhance &>/dev/null &
#fi
# dillo -f /usr/share/doc/damnsmall/getting_started.html &>/dev/null &
fluxbox

Enhance should be started(in background) before fluxbox
