CrunchBang Linux

Man I'm with you 100%. It certainly out ranks most other linux forums in terms of friendliness and has a great supportive community. Maybe that's what happens when you get the perfect balance in a distribution; never been happier than with #!.

Anyhow speaking of introductions, I started #! when I tried many of the other popular distros with my netbook. But each had it's own share of problems. So when I tried Cruncheee one day for my Aspire One, I too was amazed at how much power it awakened and how lightning fast it was, also the Wifi just WORKED (which was a big thing back then lol). Did I mention this distribution never crashed on me? Even Debian did that once.

Anyways I reckon the other half of the reason #! is so good is because of the community that supports it. Here's to you guys!

SushiMaxC out

Yeah, i play that all the time! That said in Gunroar you control a boat (bit different), and I love the mouse controls.

Also I'd like to suggest that people search 'kenta cho' in their package manager right now. He made an awesome set of shooters playing with general established game mechanics on occasion. A special mention to:

Titanion
Gunroar
Torus Trooper

Oh and the first two work pretty well on a netbook. Check 'em out!

Thanks so much jobester! i was having the exact same problem but one upgrade later and ur all set!

I believe editing the entries on menu.lst may work if I was able to set as default grub either #! 8.10 or 9.04. The problem is that find /boot/grub/stage1 does not find the grub of #! 9.04, so I am unable to set it as the default grub bootloader.

What I'm really asking is how to set #! 9.04 as the default bootloader if the 'find' command does not locate it? (this is not error 15, or error anything)

if that is not possible, could I just set the default bootloader to #! 8.10 and add 9.04 as an entry? I worry that 9.04 would be unbootable after that, as my general rule is not to put an older bootloader as default if I have more recent systems, based on previous horrible experiences.

Cheers I'll give it a go!

Hi ADcomp,

The button press is fine, I like it much. I was going to list a potential disadvantage with the zoom, when you hover over the icon it goes out of focus, but it actually looks kinda tasty! What if you could put the other icons out of focus instead of the one you are hovering over? It's only a thought and actually the out-of-focus thing is quite cool, adds to the 3d-ness of it....

Really I was wondering if you could be able to couple the hovering animation (you know, the sort of thing which flashes around the icon) with the button press. I love the new bar though man, it's amazing and certainly the #1 choice for an Aspire One. Fantastic work!

Oh and the new menu looks really good, is it a kind of window manager?

Cheers

I will make a donation as soon as I can. I really do appreciate this distro and feel free and highly productive using it, as it seems to be the first to keep up with me fully. Maybe it's the combination of a few key things I never took notice of before like conky or openbox, but I am stuck using it now! I believe that this is also the best forum I have ever visited, as I have got responses from problems instantly from a great community.

Cheers Phillip and the other mods!

@ frostfire,

I tried this and it reaaaaaaaaaaally should work. I can feel it. Problem is it didn't, but I think I have an idea why. read on.

@ anonymous,

Thank you for trying your best, I tried your method after frostfire's and got the following reply from terminal (and cogs started working in my head!):

Right then, the problem must be this! What can I do from here to make the #! splash re-appear? I'm sure the answer is close!
