when i install an app (on boot, on demand etc) it says it installed, but when i click it to open it...nothing happens. help would be appreciated.
-
which app?
-
any app i try....but the one i need is rdesktop
-
if you open a terminal window and type "rdesktop", what do you get?
-
rdesktop options and settings etc
-
I believe you need to reboot if you used 'on boot' to have it loaded.
-
i've tried on demand as well
-
If typing rdesktop results in the help menu etc then the application is opening, you simply need to supply the parameters for rdesktop to use is all

a basic rdesktop command might be for example
rdesktop 134.5.64.21
Or a little more specific
rdesktop -u Administrator -g 1600x1050 -a 16 134.5.64.21:4727
-
i've learned that I need rdesktop 1.8.3 to use with server 2012....the version of rdesktop via the apps program is 1.7.1....can anyone tell me how to upgrade it?
-
Send the extension maintainer a pm requesting an update.

This information is not correct.
rdesktop Version 1.7.1 works fine with both Server 2008R2 and Server 2012 in both tc-5.x and tc-6 x86. however there have been a few minor fixes related to server 2012 in recent releases
What is the command you're using?
-
my apologies, i did manage to update it to the latest version 1.8.3 and it fixed some mouse issues etc...now if I could create a rdesktop shortcut so end users don't have to enter the command i'd be in business
-
I'm guessing you're using tc-5.x because the iconv change in tc-6 causes other issues and might warrant a recompile for tc-6
Also iDesk might be what you're looking for..
Alternatively (as i have done) is make an extension which provides a list of servers you may select to connect to; complete with resolution and user arguments all from the desktop right click menu. all that I leave out is the password. could you be more specific? then we might have more suggestions

I install firefox "OnBoot" but cannot open it. After reboot cannot open too. However, then I install opera9, this application started successfully. I have 300MB RAM in my system. How many RAM is required for start firefox?
-
Start FF in a terminal window. What are the messages?
-
"Invalid command" sorry "illegal instruction"
-
did you type "FF" or "firefox"?
-
I type firefox. If I type FF then "sh:FF: not found"
-
what sort of cpu are you using (i486, i686, etc)?
what does "uname -a" give?
-
tc@box:~$ uname -a
Linux box 3.16.6-tinycore #777 SMP Thu Oct 16 90:42:42 UTC 2014 i686 GNU/Linux
I use VIA EPIA-5000A MiniATX
-
firefox say:
Intel Pentium II or AMD K6-III+ 233 MHz CPU
..perhaps that is the source of the illegal instruction message?
does the controlpanel gui "system stats" cpu tab give any more info on your cpu?

It's difficult to know exactly, but I'd guess firefox expects one or more cpu functions to be available that your cpu doesn't have...

Thank you, Juanito. It's maybe true.
