( Hi, first thanks for DSL :)  second, hope it's right to post here.  )

- RC2-security question:
/etc/shadow has a password set for root and dsl . ( I do not know the password ).
Problem if:
- user changes e.g. only root password
- user starts ssh
=> access to the system by default password of user dsl.

I am not sure but:
- should be "*" in /etc/shadow
- can be overwritten by "passwd" if it's "*"

Best regards,

Christian

RE: Video card: ATI Rage 128 PRO

V1.5 Detects and runs fine on Dell Demension XPS 1600 R

V2.0 RC1 and RC2 do not detect the card.

dsl-2.0RC2-syslinux.iso and dsl-2.0RC2-embedded.zip have now been updated and reposted to the release candidate area.

Some of my thoughts and thank you's for this RC.

1. timezone suggestion thanks friedgold
2. LTmodem improvement thanks cbagger
3. Siag suggestion thanks clacker
4. Zeroing in on the mydsl menu w/ persist home thanks mikshaw
5. gtkfind suggestion thanks gh78

I am using a minimal version of Joe's Window Manager. It is quite amazing with its small size and small use of resources. I am glad to see others that have the same vision that we do.

I will be posting more modules shortly.

Robert

Oops almost forgot.

Some files that have changed that may be in your backup and therefore would overwrite, thereby disabling, some new features:

1. .xfiletool.lst
2. .xinitrc
3. .fluxbox/menu
