Samuel,
I will get back to you on this, I only have Windows and Slint working
at the moment, my Debian computer doesn't work at the moment, but the
Terminus Font that Slint uses is the same one that I used in Debian,
it's the one that says "only with framebuffer".

Because you didn't say that you tried, and we have already seen reports
that were solved simply by the knowledge that alt-f1 is what you need to
use.

That makes sense indeed.

In all fairness, unless Windows has vastly improved, a standard retail

Hello Samuel,
I deleted that file of RC3 in favor of the logs from the actual

the same problems as the eventual release has.

Not being to log in as a user into the graphical user interface and being
inaccessible to visually impaired users who have more than one sound card,
makes it a fail as far as I can tell.
Too bad they didn't see my message about RC3 failures that I sent.
