photoworks

How do i do it then ? which one do i use ? 2005 ?

Does anyone knows when we would be able to update to Mandriva using easyurpmi ?

Here is the message when i try to run as regular user : [photoworks@localhost photoworks]$ kxdocker kxdocker: symbol lookup error: kxdocker: undefined symbol: _ZN11KMainWindow7setIconERK7QPixmap ERROR: Communication problem with kxdocker, it probably crashed.

when i launch kxdocker from the console here is what i got : [root@localhost photoworks]# kxdocker QPixmap: Cannot create a QPixmap when no GUI is being used QPixmap: Cannot create a QPixmap when no GUI is being used QSettings::readBoolEntry: '2' is not 'true' or 'false' QPixmap: Cannot create a QPixmap when no GUI is being used QPixmap: Cannot create a QPixmap when no GUI is being used kbuildsycoca running... Reusing existing ksycoca QSettings::readBoolEntry: '2' is not 'true' or 'false' kxdocker: symbol lookup error: kxdocker: undefined symbol: _ZN11KMainWindow7setIconERK7QPixmap DCOP aborting call from 'anonymous-10645' to 'kxdocker' ERROR: Communication problem with kxdocker, it probably crashed. [root@localhost photoworks]# Mutex destroy failure: Device or resource busy ICE default IO error handler doing an exit(), pid = 10655, errno = 2 does anyone knows what is the issue ?

The command "xboard -fcp <engine_name>" does not work. when i type it, i got this message : "syntax error near unexpected token `newline' " Another thing, in gnu chess, i don't know how to do caslling. Is there a specific setting you have to parameter in order to enable it ?

I have installed Gnome chess, but i do not know how to use it. I would like to play aginst the computer but i do not have any idea on how to do it.

Well i would like to have toe option anyway. Is it possible to get it back ? I used this sessions only in very exceptional cases, but i still need it. Is there a package i need to reinstall in order to access to it.

i have a problem i tried to uninstall some packages and i guess i must have uninstalled some wrong rpms since that now, when i boot, i can only log into a normal user. i cannot login into root since i don't have the option anymore. funny thing is when i am in my normal user and i want to get into mandrake control center, i can enter the root password and it will allow me inside mandrake control center. any idea on how to restore the option to log to root session ?

hello, i thought i would share this : Linux :D :D

I don't get it, what file do i have to copy onto directory ? i don't have a file and i do not know how to create one. I really do not have a clue. Is there not a step by step guide somewhere on how to configure those sort of things ?

Well how do you make the script ? I have to say that i do not know about any programming.

Is there something wrong with the Mandrake automated update, it keeps telling me that that my update applet is not configured right adnd when i try to get to the Mandrakeonline website (http://www.mandrakeonline.com) i can't display the website.

Does anyone knows how to start automatically ksmoothdock at startup ?

Ok, i tried to do what you said but, somehow, it does not work. I am not sure i understand all of it. Could you tell me exactly, step by step what i have to enter as command Here is what i have now in interface eth1 KWIFI/MANAGER status of active connection : Connected to network : WLAN access point : 00:30:BD:63:94:7A (which is by the way the right MAC address of my access point) Local IP :192.168.2.13 frequency channel : 2462(11) Access point unknown here is again the information of my access point (that i am able to access from Windows XP) : AP NANE : SergeAP SSID : WLAN channel : 11 RTS THRESHOLD : 2346 IP ADDRESS : 192.168.2.13 SUBNET MASK : 255.255.255.0 DEFAULT GATEWAY : 192.168.2.1 dhcp client : Disabled So the question is, where do i get to enter the Access point Name (SergeAP) ? Somehow this variable is missing. what about this configuration interface below (you get it when you click confing in KWIFI/MANAGER), how does it work ?

Thanks !!!!!!!!!!

I just looked in the mount directory and the usb key is now visible.

cannot find them either.

In rpm package manager, il have two version of kernel : kernel-2.6.8.1.10mdk kernel-2.6.8.1.12mdk can i uninstal safely this one : kernel-2.6.8.1.10mdk ?

Where do i find it ? i looked in my rpm packages manager and i cannot find it. Is there anywhere to find as well a mdm rpm package ?

it tells me taht gcc is already installed

when i type iwconfig in the console, i obtain this : [photoworks@ photoworks]$ su Password: [root@ photoworks]# iwconfig lo no wireless extensions. eth0 no wireless extensions. eth1 IEEE 802.11-DS ESSID:"WLAN" Nickname:"localhost" Mode:Managed Frequency:2.462GHz Access Point: 00:30:BD:63:94:7A Bit Rate:11Mb/s Tx-Power=15 dBm Sensitivity:1/3 Retry min limit:7 RTS thr=2346 B Fragment thr:off Encryption key:off Power Management:off sit0 no wireless extensions Any idea what i have to do ? Here is the info about my acces boint : BSS ID : 00:30:BD::63:94:7A REGULATION DOMAIN : ETSI WEP : DISABLED ASSOCIATED STATIONS : 1 AP NANE : SergeAP SSID : WLAN channel : 11 RTS THRESHOLD : 2346 IP ADDRESS : 192.168.2.13 SUBNET MASK : 255.255.255.0 DEFAULT GATEWAY : 192.168.2.1 dhcp client : Disabled ticked on accept any SSID So where are the settings in mandrake to set parameters for the wireless card and what should i enter ? I am totally at a loss.

thanks i will try that.

The other usb devices works, except for my bluetooth usb adapter. In both cases none are even visible.

I just discovered KWIFI Manager and when i opened it, apparently if detect a signal from my wireless card. However i do not know how to configure it so that the wireless network would work> Any help would be appreciated. I have this card, by the way, on my computer

I downloaded My Login manager on kde-look.org but when i want to install it on my mandrake 10.1, it fails. i type ./configure and here what it tells me : checking build system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu checking host system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu checking target system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c checking for -p flag to install... yes checking whether build environment is sane... yes checking for gawk... gawk checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes checking for style of include used by make...
