I know it's Gimp print, but I did compile gimp print also and it still doesnt work. EDIT : Sorry, I didnt know how to put text in a small window like a quote window :( Sorry for the long post.

I did ./configure make make install with no probs. Now the app is working but each time I try to connect to MSN, it tells me I need a SSL Library. Know where I could find it ?

So, I want KDE 3.2.1. I know that Mandrake doesn't installs Desktop Environements like the other distros so compiling Gnome 2.6 for Mandrake is a mess, but I was wondering if it was the same thing with KDE. I mean, can I just compile the KDE 3.2.1 packages like every app or Mandrake have a special way of installing KDE too, like Gnome ? Where can I see if someone released RPMs of Gnome 2.6 and KDE 3.2.1 ? Thanks everyone !

I'M all confused. So, I should wait for Gnome 2.6 RPMs ? Where are they or where will they be ?

What do you mean ? Can I compile the sources on www.gnome.org with ./configure, ./make && ./make install ? Or there is something else I need to do ? I've heard that Mdk don't install desktop environnments the same way of the other distros. If I compile the package found on gnome.org and it doesn't runs too well, can I install gnome RPMs (when they'll be released) over, let's say, my compiled Gnome Desktop ? Or I should just wait for RPMs to be released ?

Well, how long do you think ?

I'm on a 56K modem, so no big downloads for me :). I tried Mandrake cause people told me it was the best Windows to Linux distro. So I bought a french Linux magazine that comes with 3 CDs each time a distro is upgraded. (By the way, is anyone speaking French here ? I am) The thing is that I'm a beginner at linux and I've compiled only 10 or 15 apps like xmms or x-chat but never a desktop environnement. So, since Mdk 10 Final Edition (I know, I'm not sure about the name) won't have Gnome 2.6, I want to download it and compile, but I don't know if it's hard or not. - About the Kernel's RPMs, does the kernel is installed by itself or I still need to compile it ? - Are there special sources I should use for building Gnome or KDE ? Or I should use the normal one one they're websites ? - Is the a webpage I that every Mandrake user should know about ? - Are there any good docs for Linux and Mandrake out there ? Thanks a lot !

what about the Kernel Headers ?

Well, do you think Mandrake 10 Final Edition will have the new Gnome 2.6 or will still have 2.4 ?

http://www.mandrakesecure.net/en/kernelupdate.php SO I found a page where they tell us how to update the kernel. Now, I need to know what is the name of the new Kernel package. Something like : Kernel2-6-3mdk. I dunno how to get the name of the newest ver.

I should type ''urpmi (what)'' in order to get the kernel ? I can't use the net as the only scource for urpmi dammit

I tried to do that via (in KDE) Configuration -> Packaging -> Software Media Manager and I unchecked the 3 CD, and checked only ''update_source''. Is there something i'm doing wrong ?

mmm... I really don't remember how to do that.

So I'm new in the linux world and decided to try Mandrake. I have mandrake since ver. 8.2, and I love. Since I was in windows before, this distro is easier to understand for me. Still, I have a problem. Right now I have Kernel 2.4. I've heard that 2.6.3, the last Kernel, had some security fixes. I really want the new Kernel, but there's so many versions and places where we can download it that I'm confused. What should I do ? Urpmi ? Can you help me ? P.S.: This is my first post here. This board looks nice ! B)
