pisal(a):
This is broken and does not work. The whole Theme is broken here.
1). I get a 'black' box on the left with some numbers.
maybe could you try in qemu? if it works for you there (it does here)
then we know that it's really some hardware problem (the theme is made
by ironiq, you should poke him)
Poked on IRC already :) Yes work on 'quemu' but is why I test this time on real
hardware.
Is not the first time something works on quemu but real and what we want is to
make it work from 'CD' no ?
Anyway I don't think is my hardware I have some other LiveCD's here too , with
the same ( well gfxmenu with lang and other options )
menu and all are fine.
2) .The 'Live' part is missing a vga= and quiet part
adding quiet is up to janny :) vga should be added by gfxmenu
Well quiet should be there cause without is really weird. Which is added from
qemu but on real boot :-D
( Theme is buggy or we miss something in initrd or the like , I'll spend some
time this week to figure the live scripts )
3) f2 -> LNAG DE boots EN
it seems to be ok here, for example the "restoring previous settings
from a config file" prints "überfoo" instead of "skipping" which must be
something German :)
This may be the same bug as the other 'not' working things from the theme.
Alsa startup drops weird errors ( is too fast to see what the errors are sorry
) , I didn't got sound at all.
using lsmod, can you check if there are some unnecessary loaded or
missing modules? sound seems to be ok on my machine
I saw yet is some mixer error but is really to fast read the whole text .. I'll
try to boot debug or so maybe I can see more.
Network does not work here ( I have 3 network cards ). We should have :
1) an earyload=mod,mod,mod from initrd
or
2) an blacklist=mod,mod,mod from initrd
or
3) both
So one can tell what card to use. ( eg: early load foo_mod_for_card BAZ or even
blacklist all the others etc )
( feel free to poke me on that if you don't know what I mean )
by default eth0 tries to use dhcp, i think you mean this could be
changed so that for example eth1 could try to request dhcp, right?
Yes the first card eg: the build-in one is always eth0 ( if you got 2 then the
one you set from BIOS ).
We have this problem on initramfs as well , is why I have blacklist= ..
Well we use broken mdev from BB for the live stuff which trust me does not work
( you'll just notice it does not once you get an modular kernel :P )
so we can't even play with udev rules here. Anyway this may be my problem later
to port it so don't care yet ;)
blacklisting modules is also a good idea, i don't know what plans janny
has :) blacklist=foo,bar could be a solution then we could parse that
parameter in rc.hotplug before loading any module :)
As well earlyload because some boxes got really weird BIOS'es and foo need be
loaded before bar to make stuff working
but blacklist first :)
( We can wait for bug reports for the other thingy and implement if really
needed )
X startup is *should not* ask one about whatever but :
maybe i misunderstand you but it does not ask currently either
It does ask you about the resolution and popups the :
"Is this fine? press OK box"
This should have defaults or a parser to set it auto and boot X away without
to bug one about on 'xstart' from command line
1) start away from comandline with defaults
this is what the current situation
Not here :P
2) this should be a boot option as well IMO
you mean starting x by default?
Yes, xmode=yes|no ( or whatever it may be called ) from cmdline.
We should tell somewho the fwlive user is using sudo by default ?!
i think you mean here that 'the fwlive user has sudo', it does not use
sudo for everything i'm sure :)
No idea :P I just noticed I can use sudo by default :)

(i haven't modified TODO yet, but after some discussion i think these
missing features could be go there)
Ok :)
thanks,
