2. why does the personal space keep getting bigger? i dont save on the usb but to my ext hdd [above] so why am i always getting low disk space?

Only if you choose to resize it .
Ext2 filesystem is slow to update . pfix=fsck can free some space . As I read Mr Kaulers' blog recently he is fond of ext2 but not me . Use ext3 or ext4 .
The browsers cache should be cleared once a while . Firefox defaults to 50 MB i think, seamonkey to 4 MB .

3. why does slacko version recognize my cf mem card when racy, wary, and lucid cant? fault?

There had been posts on the murga forum recently in regards of devices that show off as /dev/*mblckp1* instead as normal SD-cards show off as usual /dev/sdb1 USB storage devices . Since Slacko is most recent the filter in the scripts /bin/mount and /usr/local/bin/drive_all could have been adjusted for this.
