Bugs in 6.0.4

Tue Apr 19, 2011 12:14 pm

ntpdate is missing. Need to install ntpdate for the Time, Timezone and Keybaord utility to be able to set the time.

New installer hangs on installing to encrypted partition. Edit /usr/share/applications/refracta-installer-new to replace 'gksu' with 'su -c' or run refractainstaller-new from root terminal.

/etc/issue still says 'beta1' ...oops.

Install Software utility shows 'dvd_set' which includes libdvdcss2, but debian-multimedia is not in sources.list. Adding that repo will result in a lot of packages being replaces at the next upgrade. (e.g. ffmpeg, vlc, libavcodec52, and others) Not sure what the best solution is for this. Might be good to have a way for this utility to add or remove lines from sources.list for debian-multimedia, contrib and non-free, Hadret's repo? maybe others?

Not a refracta-bug, but i think it fits here.

Fix is easy:
edit
/usr/share/applications/zenmap-root.desktop
/usr/share/applications/zenmap.desktop
and make it look:
Icon=/usr/share/zenmap/pixmaps/zenmap.png
If no luck, run "update-menus" as user.

OK, I'm glad we sorted that out. I should probably post this in a separate thread, too, since it's pretty important.

It seems that the template for the live folder didn't get copied when I made the snapshot for 6.0.5. The easy fix is to run as root or with sudo:
Code:
mkdir /usr/local/lib/refractasnaphsot/iso/live
and if you want memtest on your live cd, but a copy of memtest in the live directory. You can either install memtest86+ and grab the file from your /boot directory or grab it from here - http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/dis ... les/extras
