   Hello,
   I have just started slitaz-4.0.iso via Live USB key on an old laptop (1GB RAM, bought around 2009, I guess) ; my objective is to reuse this PC with a light linux

   2 annoying problems after a first boot on this Live USB :
   1) mouse cursor hardly moves: I am always disturbed by a kind of popup to choose between desktops 1 and 2 : I managed to suppress that popup by removing desktop 2, but the result is not better : almost impossible to move the mouse

   2) wifi does not work

   I had also tried the slitaz-rolling.iso version, and got similar problems, although mouse pbs are not as annoying, but still this kind of popup to choose a desktop

   Any suggestion would be appreciated
   thanks in advance

   Verify you boot into core flavor and have linux-wireless driver package installed.
   tazpkg search linux-wireless
   If not install it:
   tazpkg -gi linux-wireless
   The user has to install pciutils to identify the wireless adapter in order to install the correct firmware package.
   tazpkg -gi pciutils
   If your wifi adapter plugs into usb:
   tazpkg -gi usbutils
   Post output:
   lsusb
   Post the output from this command:
   lspci -nn
   The output from above will also identify your graphics adapter which is required to install graphics driver and additional software for graphics hardware direct rendering (acceleration).
   Attach a copy of /var/log/Xorg.0.log as an attachment.
