Backtrack 3 USB

[jackthebastard]

Hey guys,

I'm having a little trouble.. I recently downloaded the all new Backtrack 3, USB version, and put it on my 16GB drive, hoping to use it as a portable OS. I easily enough put it on the stick, and made it bootable, and all is good. Boots just fine, ignoring the HDD (with XP/Ubuntu).

HOWEVER.. one of my two problems is thus- for some reason, whenever attempting to type in a new window (any window) the instant I click a text box and begin typing, for some reason, it types in the run command box on the taskbar - and only in the box on taskbar. Remove the box, and no typing can be done at all. The only way to input text atm is copy/paste from that box! (little annoying)..

The second problem, is not really a 'problem' but, I was wandering if there is any way for BT Live OS to save it's state to the USB stick, as this is why it's on there in the first place - to be a portable OS. At the min, it reverts to original settings each time, which kind of defeats the object.

Any help would be muchly appreciated, thnx

Jack

1) Try selecting VESA instead of the compiz version. (I'm sure I've seen this before on one of my machines)

2) You'll need a linux partition on the drive also to save the changes. http://blip.tv/file/594903/

It's all on the backtrack wiki/forum somewhere (in many forms).
