I did flash RC9.1. It works without too much pb on my 750.
I flashed it with the c760 kernel, as described here (
https://www.oesf.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=10431&st=30 ) in order to have only a root partition (i didn't know if it would work without doing this, and i didn't want to waste my time).
Good points :
- I like the new package manager interface, i missed the description and the list of dependencies on RC9.
- VLC gui is back !!!! That is good news.
- The new "Start menu" with bold fonts is much better.
- It may be subjective... but i feel like this version is a bit faster than the previous one.
Bad points :
- I tried installing Xemacs but i didn't chek how much space it would need. Of course, i didn't have memory enough, so the installation crashed. I got stuck into a "no space left on device" error and had to manually rease /home/tmp/ipkg/*. I know it is my fault, but it would be great if we could have a tool checking there is enough space on device BEFORE the installation and the downloading process begins. Plus I can't uninstall xemacs anymore... The icon is here, on the desktop, the bin is in $PATH, but when i launch it, i have a "Bus error". I think i'll have to manually erase all the files xemacs have installed...
- EDIT : I still have troubles with mplayer. It randomly crashes when playing different videos. My guess is that it is related to ffmpeg as if i use the "-vo null" argument the audio part plays without any pb, but i admitt i don't know much about all this.
- That is all !
Once again, you did a very good job !
Thanks again.
