HIGHKING - some questions if you have a minute

[mindwave]

I'll PM you, but in case there are others wondering i thought I would post here as well.

 

I have started looking at pendrivelinux (which appears to be basically mcnl 2007.1 refaced) and PCLOS 2008 minime

 

and I see your name in both remaster scripts

 

however, the scripts are , obviously, not interchangable

 

maybe you can answer a few questons i've always wondered.

 

1) Why the change from zenity to kdialogs?

 

2) is PCLOS 2008 actually closer to 2008 than 2007.1?

 

I note a newer Kernal, but lipstick on a pig still makes it a pig the question gets asked in the PCLOS forum a lot but i've never seen a clear answer

 

i really am trying to learn for my class, so anything you can point me to i'm eager to learn.

 

i have found some base info on zenity and kdialogs, i just havent had the chance to go through it all.

 

 

thanks

Hi, I don't know exactly the differences between the 2 remaster scripts. I wrote one for MCNLive, and that's where my input stops. I know the guys from PCLOS are using it (one of them pm'ed me about it) but I haven't looked into it yet. I didn't look into it simply because MCNLive is a bit dead now :(

 

As far as I can remember the script in MCNLive is using zenity. Only the yes/no dialogs were replaced by kdialog since zenity doesn't have those. (I might be wrong, it's been a while...)

 

I don't know about PCLOS 2008... I have never tried it.

thanks for your help
