IFL 4.03 is it just me?

[rks]

I usually use IFD but I downloaded my licensed IFLinux v4.03 x64(GUI). I don’t know if its me having a bit of a small issue or not. The issue is actually with the TBIview module. I made a system image today and it went well. However when I tried the tbi module( shows as v1.55) I checked the OPEN FILE option then clicked OK. After that my mouse pointer changed from an arrow to an hourglass. I waited for awhile but nothinged...no prompt for a filename or an explorer window to navigate to a file.. After waiting with no noticble activity I clicked the X to exit. Is something amiss? FYI the backup image was viewable in Windows tbiview 4.

On another note, How do I EXIT ifl? I couldn’t how other then power off.

On another another note, on the lower left on the screen shows: desktop 1 button and desktop 2 button Why 2?

Any guidence appreciated

If you tried to open TBIView in IFL, you need to tab to the OK button and press Enter.

It doesn't seem to be mouse-aware.

You exit IFL by right-clicking on any blank area on the UI, and selecting either Reboot, or Power Down, located at the bottom of the context menu.

Desktops are similar to multiple windows...you can have different IFL apps running at the same time in separate desktops.

You also have an option to add additional desktops.

Before opening TBIView you need to mount the partition containing your backup images. Then open TBIView and open mnt1. mnt1 contains the contents of your mounted partition.

OlgNavyGuy.......thanks for the info. I did try rt clicking on a blank area but nothing happened. I will try again later on today.

Brian K....thanks for providing those steps.

The method provided by OldNavyGuy may be better, but (because I didn't know any other way) I've always exited IFL by Ctrl-Alt-Del (twice).

Hey Bob... I tried that and it worked!! thanks for posting.

The Windows key on your keyboard also brings up the context menu.
