Since I have no wiki access and development sounds like the best place for this I am going to put problems I am looking for solutions to in here. This topic is mainly for me so I do not forget to do the things I have said I will. This is a work in progress and will be edited drastically from time to time.
4/17 Going to be busy for a couple of months. I may or may not be able to finish some of this between now and then.
1) Wireless manager
+ preferably one that can remember the keys to multiple APs
+ wicd
- lists multiple APs with a simple click and connect gui
- remembers multiple APs keys
- requires gtk
- install size?
+ ceni
- can be used as a back up or alternative to wicd
- writes to networks file and remembers at least one wireless key
- requires perl
- requires my C wrapper to run without typing password every time

2) updating the fluxbox menu after a package install
+ I am pretty sure I know how to add custom menu entries and have them be static, but will need some time to experiment.
+ update-menus needs to be run, but that writes its own crazy layout
+ Custom configs can be put in /etc/menu, but it looks like every single package would have to have its own customization. When I get around to it I will test this out and post my results.
3) battery life monitor
+ a commented line needs to be added to conkyrc
- the line would just add the battery life when uncommented
- there are a few ways to write the line some involve the acpi package
- the installer detecting a battery and adding the line would be the best solution
4) auto login for live cd

linktext was:"antix.freeforu ms.org/auto-login- ... -t502.html"
====================================
5) sudo set up by default
+ sudo is already installed so why not set it up?
