Cursor Problem Happy to report that my solution to the cursor problem in my box is holding true through all desktop sessions I have installed. Blackbox, lxde, twm, wmaker, xfce4 and mate. Redglass cursor is even showing on the GDM login window. I have no KDE installed. Atip wrote:Solution: in /usr/s...

Less buggy? Well the cursor is just one issue. There are/were others as I reported, like rc.networkmanager not enabled and that on a brand new install. I went for Slint32 and still love it unfortunally the trend is now for 64bits. So I gave Slint64 a try and stopped it and went instead for Slackel64...

I am not a stranger to mate. In fact have used it for a while. I think there was even a Salix-mate version. Here are some observations: In mate-session: -- Mouse wheel does not scroll to different workspaces. -- In Control Center clicking on LightDM GTK+Greeter settings, System hangs. -- On panel ne...

You ran the scripts in http://slackware.uk/slint/x86_64/slint-14.2.1/, right? Yes. My box was just a mess I think already before. Made a new install from DVD w/o kde. Booted and got to the login window. Entered my name, then it asked for password, however, there was no cursor in the slot and I was ...
