use commands with kdesu. For example push alt+f2 and run kdesu konqueror

Could you pls send me repositories' address for apt in 2005 LE? Thx.

I thought that these are tarballs, but these were RPMs compressed to tarballs. :) Thanks. Marked the thread Solved - Artificial Intelligence

I seeked for open office 2.0 beta rpms for long a time but I did not find. Any link ? Thanks.

Thanks. I did it from Mandrake Control Center. It runs as GDM.

The file is "/etc/sysconfig/desktop". It should contain the line: DISPLAYMANAGER=GNOME You can select the type of session you want (KDE, GNOME or other) from the GDM login display, but if you want GNOME to be the default, add the following line to /etc/sysconfig/desktop DESKTOP=GNOME <{POST_SNAPBACK}> There is no desktop file in there.

I saw somewhere as edit /etc/sysconfig/displaymanager and set the DisplayManager > setting to gdm from kdm. But there is not "displaymanager" file or folder in sysconfig folder.

I installed gnome 2.8 beside kde 3.4. How can I set to run the gdm for log on instead of the kdm?

Maybe Maniva is better both of them :)

Mandriva(Mandrake and Connectiva) is coming. May good for us.

you should also add other medias with urpmi such as main, contrib packages

What are the means of the official, community but not for 10.1 or others on the proceed 1.

I just want to update the packages of the 10.2 rc2 and selected only community of the select system section on the proceed 1 in the easy urpmi web site. RC2 has not firefox 1.0.2, flash, java, wincodec etc. Because of this, I will install these packages of the plf packages.

Thanks but I am using 10.2 rc2 and asked for this. I think, it is that only community, because of cooker is not reliable.

What is Mandrake Limited Edition ,which is called 10.2 RC2 at the same time, format? Is Cooker? Which system should I select in the "Select your system" section on the easy urpmi web site. [moved from Everything Linux by spinynorman]

KDE 3.4 is really perfect.

I installed Mandrake 10.1 official now. Then I upgraded KDE to 3.4 thanks to Thac's packages. Everything is like OK. But I have a new problem now . OS runs level 5. KDE login screen is appeared , but does not log in. I passes this problem changing init level to 3, and then startx in konsole. I am now KDE 3.4. How should I solve this log in problem? I would welcome any idea. One more, Konqueror has the two entries of bookmarks, that is there are double bookmarks. Also, bookmarks are not saved. When I restart pc, my bookmarks are disappear from bookmark window. Thanks.

Konsole said the following. Sorry, How shall I do now?

(Y/n) n <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I passed this problem installing mas package which involves libmasc.so.1 I installed KDE 3.4. But when I login again, KDE splash screen is looking KDE 3.3.2 but KDE 3.4 programs such as tray icon are looking at desktop.

Yes, I encountered the same problem today. The login screen is appeared involving many user names (such as admin, root, kdm, halt etc.) and the keyboard was not working after 2-3 second. I could not login KDE. Because of this problem, I had to do the new installation.

I have 10.2 RC2. and repository is http://anorien.csc.warwick.ac.uk/mirrors/thac/10.2/RPMS with hdlist.cz Isnt it correct this repository?

During the installation, you will see the partition management section or thing like this. Pick in there custom or manual partition. Delete the partitions and create new partition or partitions. And go on to installation.

I dont use Kubuntu while there is Mandrake. Kubuntu just involves KDE. It has not control center for hardware analysis. Thanks Devries.

Just use urpmi: urpmi.addmedia thacs.rpms http://anorien.csc.warwick.ac.uk/mirrors/thac/10.1/RPMS with hdlist.cz I added the above in the konsole. Which command should I use now to upgrade to KDE 3.4?

Could you please anyone tell us howto upgrade KDE 3.4 ? Thanks and regards. [moved from Installing Mandrake by spinynorman]
