Try changing the line starting etc/gdm/Sessions/Xfce4 in /morphix/init.sh of
the
mainmodule. Changing it to start rox directly should work better (and thus not
background xfce4, you shouldn't need it, rox is a wm on its own afaik)

Get the 2.0 cloop version from http://www.morphix.org/debian/2.6/
or from http://developer.linuxtag.net/knoppix/i386/

Might throw it in the default m.org/debian repository instead. Phobos can
handle
1.0 cloop modules too though.

I'm hoping to have Luna (0.5) out next, Titan might make for a nice 1.0
releasename. Luna is taking her time though :)
The moon-names are actually a wink to Sun, but also because '0.4-1d' isn't as
much fun as 'Phobos'. Besides, with the amount of moons in our solar system, we
don't have to worry about running out anytime soon ;)

start it manually in morphix/init.sh, I believe I left it out for some silly
reason...

base if you want to load it from the livecd, mainmod if you want to have it
loaded after installing. You could opt to make a very simple minimod to do
this.

I've seen it, but captive is a weird beast when you want to decide where to
place it: it's both a kernel module and needs a GUI in order to search for the
NTFS driver thingy. As I don't use Windows myself, I was hoping someone else
would be willing to pick this up (again, having it in a minimodule would be
best)

> 6) It's enough for today ;)

Only 5? It's a slow day then ;)

And I would welcome an astronomically good Morphix-based livecd =)

Cheers and good luck with Lin4astro,

Alex
