   Hi nary,

   Can you give more details about your configuration and the way you install SliTaz ? It seems you have at least 2 HD.

   I have not seen response to the invasion of the user tux in my personal account, even after it is deleted. It is recreated on next boot without a password and has access to my personal files

   The tux was eliminated and then commented on the lines of the boot file. Still, he appears on next boot, but no longer accepts any password, redirecting input again. Ideally the script to test the existence of new user name and replace the tux for him. Thanks

   Hey, there, Christophe! I installed the latest slitaz on my Cedarview and got it working, no problem. I then downloaded the slitaz version of 915resolution and wrote a script to change the vesa resolution from 1066x768 to 1066x768 pretending to be 1366x768, and it works, especially after using lxappearance to change font boldness. So, all is beautiful, as it should be, under the vesa graphics driver. Oh, slight detail: You have to run 915resolution.sh after starting up, then exit and log in to a 16:9 vesa session. Now, if there were some obvious way to make 915resolution.sh run before the initial slim login, I guess I have to poke around in the /home and /root directories to find where that is....

   Know what works even better on a Cedarview chipset? The MeeGo 'adaptation-pc' kernel and its modules. Interesting thing about the MeeGo kernel: It also runs on other Intel chipset computers (not AMD, it halts halfway up). So, if you don't own a Cedarview, you can test the kernel on your Sandybridge or whatever. You will find out that (a) the 'adaptation-pc' kernel doesn't play nice with /dev/root. Even MeeGo developers know that /dev/root is missing. And (b) so far, I haven't gotten it to work with slitaz.

   So, if you test it on your sandybridge, and you get it to work, then it will most likely work on a Cedarview as well. Let me tell you in advance that the intel_drv.so will recognize the 'adaptation-pc' kernel as an intel framebuffer and procede to load the sandybridge intel driver stuff. On a Cedarview, if you get it to work with slitaz, you can get the xf86_fbdev graphics driver, and fbdev_drv.so will recognize the psbfb framebuffer as /dev/fb0, and you will get a very nice framebuffer 16:9 with a real, honest count of horizontal and vertical pixels, not the pretend version on the vesa_drv.so.

   Postscript: I thought you might find it interesting to see slitaz in action on a Cedarview with vesa doing 16:9 instead of 4:3. Herewith a .png file.

   OK, the .png file was not accepted. So, I am working from RIPLinuX to do this tricky stuff, and I really am using an 'adaptation-pc' kernel with the fbdev_drv.so that RIP has no problem with (mostly). And, what do you know, RIP has mtpaint and liberation fonts also. At any rate, I used mtpaint to give you a piece of the screen image, one showing clearly that the 16:9 aspect ratio is in effect, and that screen images somehow get a full 1366x768 pixels from vesa running in 1024x768 mode.

    One more thing about the latest slitaz running on the Cedarview using 915resolution: If you install google-chrome, then xine, xine-plugin, which also brings in firefox and theora, then the PEACEKEEPER BENCHMARK running on slitaz gives a score of 879, which is absolutely the highest score yet recorded on Cedarview. AND, it shows the bouncing glass ball with the balls inside sequence, an almost unheard=of sight on Cedarview outside of MeeGo, which gives a peacekeeper score in the mid 700s.

    My Dear,
    Do not know if I'm posting in the right place. Sorry for the mistakes, but use Google translator to communicate in this forum, and it does not always hit what I mean.
    I have two problems to solve. My name on the initial boot instead of the tux, and install the virtualbox.
    Thanks for your attention

    After some updates Virtualbox was working perfectly. Problem solved. It remains only to put my name on the initial boot. Nobody in the world will have a complete system, with music, TV, multimedia operations, internet, office, networking, printing, etc ... with less than 1GB, high processing speed and 10 seconds to turn on and off.
    Congratulations, thank
    Arthur
