I have no sound
GParted doesn't run
- As root, edit /usr/share/applications/gparted.desktop, and change:
Exec=gksudo /usr/sbin/gparted %f
into
Exec=gksu /usr/sbin/gparted %f
I messed up the user creation
- So you can log in as root. Open a terminal and type:
adduser
- Don't forget to push [UP] when asked to put your user in additional groups.
Can't see any .pnd
- Click on the green icon near the Xfce menu.
Still can't see any .pnd
- You forgot to add your user in the right groups. Edit /etc/group and add yourself to:
audio cdrom floppy plugdev video power netdev lp scanner
I want USB enabled at boot
- Edit /etc/rc.d/rc.local , and uncomment:
#modprobe ehci-hcd
into
modprobe ehci-hcd
Can't set the battery monitor to display time left
- Left-click anywhere on the center of the Xfce menu bar.
Panel-->Panel Preferences-->Items-->Battery Monitor
Emulators and Games icons are the same
- It's because freedesktop menus are crap. I lost days trying to set them up.
(14.0) Wi-Fi works only once
- Apply this tweak. It will be corrected in next release (14.0-2), and it's faster to correct manually than using a patch.
= Sometimes, i can't unmount a drive"
- Launch Thunar (the file manager), and click on the "eject" icon.
SSL doesn't work
- Set your time/date correctly.
(14.0) Cursor moves strangely when i use the touchscreen
- It's a bug, probably from GTK. I don't know how to fix it yet.
I created a new user, but he can't use .pnds
- The SD card was mounted by the first user. Simply umount the card and mount it back while logged as the new user.
I logged as another user, but I can't use .pnds
- The SD card was mounted by the first user. Simply umount the card and mount it back while logged as the new user.
