I think I'm going to like dexter as well. I do have a couple of "wish list" recommendations with it while fully acknowledging that it is brand spanking new. Kudos to Branden for doing such a bangup job. I'd also like to mention my appreciation for his sometimes crass sense of humor, like having us type, "I obey." when we install/upgrade the beta 4.0.1 debs.
1)The main thing I ran into has to do with my usb mouse. The dexter script offers /dev/usbmouse to handle the usb mouse under X but, per documentation at: http://www.linux-usb.org/USB-guide/book1.html I have had my USB mouse configured and set in my XF86Config to /dev/input/mice. I haven't had a chance to fix things after I upgraded to the latest beta last night but this momentarily has prevented me from getting X to work at home. While I bring this up, I haven't played with linux USB shite for any length of time and I might just be incredibly dense. ;-j 2)I'd love to see dexter offer a 60hz option for 1600x1200 as that's what I run my monitor at. Many other resolutions have the 60hz option already in dexter. This is not some pressing necessity, obviously, but I bet a number of users are like me and settle for a minimal refresh rate in order to get the higher resolution. I know, this is a petty recommendation but it might affect enough people to be considered anyway. * Florian Friesdorf ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) [001011 18:44] wrote: > Hi, > > I think I'm going to like dexter, > but at the moment it's missing /dev/gpmdata in the mouse port selection menu. > > -ff > > > -- > Florian Friesdorf <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > OpenPGP key available on public key servers > > ------> Save the future of Open Source <------ > -> Online-Petition against Software Patents <- > ------> http://petition.eurolinux.org <------- -- -Grant ````````````````````````````````````oio````````````````````````````````````` "See them clamber, these nimble apes!
