New extensions to test , use , and share with friends ...

These can be found in the "testing" area until feedback is received.

11/01/2004
qtparted.dsl ( factored - use with gtk2.dsl ONLY )
soundmodem.dsl
gpsk31.dsl

11/09/2004 ( what? ) <-- 8 days?
autoscan-gtk2-0.93beta.dsl ( requires gtk2.dsl )

11/10/2004
webmin-gtk2-1.160.dsl ( requires gtk2.dsl )

11/11/2004
nedit.tar.gz ( version 5.5 )

11/17/2004
tinyfugue.tar.gz

11/19/2004
ted.dsl
(its in the "apps" section, as it is well tested)

11/21/2004

11/25/2004
wmdrawer.dsl

11/27/2004 {EDITED}
easytag-1.0.dsl ( the old/stable version )

Changed from the 0.18 version,
and dropped the gtk2 version,
since this one now offers freedb usage.

11/27/2004
gimp-gtk2-2.0.4.dsl ( requires gtk2.dsl )

11/28/2004
nvu-gtk2-0.50.dsl ( requires gtk2.dsl )

Wouldn't Gparted do much better than gtparted? It's already in GTK (unsure of version but definitely not 2), and does pretty much the same thing.

Installed GTK2.dsl and GTPARTED.dsl in that order...

I have DSL installed on hard drive HDC1

I was logged in as root. When I ran QTPARTED it worked just fine.

I have DSL installed on an older machine. 133mhz pentium, 80megs of memory, 3 hard drives (all less than 4gig in size) and a 2x cd burner. Hard drives and burner are all IDE.

I was able to resize, add and delete partitions on multiple drives. Nice graphical front end.

This will be a great addition to a "rescue cd".

Thanks for all your hard work.

--------------
======== Note =========
The DSL Forum Search default is 'OR'
If you search for "cat dog" you will get all "cat" posts and all "dog" posts.
If you search for "cat AND dog" you will only find results that contain BOTH "cat" and "dog"
Add '*' for wildcards, " cat* and dog* "

I found this today at freshmeat.net.. AutoScan
It's beta, and still buggy, but it was so cool I had to pass it on.
Similar to LanNetScan or LanGuard Lan Scanner...

It wants Gnome 2.4
It wants GTK 2.x
It wants Firefox
It wants Samba
It wants many, many libs..

I "starved" it and left out the Firefox and Gnome/bonobo .
The gtk and many libs are supplied by the gtk2.dsl
The "samba" is still in there , so don't install the samba.dsl
over it, as I have not tested this overwrite yet..

I may need to point a path to firefox.tar.gz in the future,
and I will try to use the samba.dsl as well..
It gets nasty when you have to have so many "dsl dependencies"
in order to run an app.. The gtk2.dsl is enough of a dependency already.

It's in the "mydsl_testing" area .
Feedback welcomed..
..please feel free to tweak any command-line options,
or add/subtract whatever you find to make it more stable.
This would be a nice addition to the toolbelt..
( wonder if it can be built to run in gtk1.2? )
