Title: tc documentation
Post by: densebeast on June 06, 2011, 09:46:37 PM

First, let me begin by saying I LOVE tc on my eeepc. I aborted deb when squeeze was released and now wouldn't use anything but tc. Wonderful distro. That being said...

I realize that tc is not your usual *nux (debian, fedora, suse, etc), and that it takes a little time to wrap yer head around the way it works and behaves. But it's that much harder when the documentation is so vague, out of date, and missing. Here's an example. xscreensaver.

Read the repo instructions to start the daemon at boot.

Then, this post (towards the bottom):

That was 20 minutes of my life I'll never get back...

The extensions are user contributed; if you find an error in one (including the metadata), please PM the extension creator.

For xscreensaver*, I've edited the info files.
