Thank you so much!
-
Yeah. That seems to be the issue. I will have to wait. I will say Chrome/Chromium does indeed runs circles around Firefox and Opera on my 64bit system. Frankly it is not even close in terms of speed and stability(at least in Firefox's case).
-
Thanks Greg. How about a 64bit repo?
-
I just wished I could find a rpm repo for Chromium. I have a older rpm I found and it does work very well, but I can't find the newer releases.
-
Is there a repo I can setup for Chromium? I have searched and have not seen much in terms of Mandriva. Thanks.

Here is a screenshot. Look at the word "millions".

rpm -qa | grep libfreetype libfreetype6-2.3.11-1mdv2010.0 libfreetype6-2.3.9-1.2mdv2009.1 How do you set font to default in Mandriva Gnome?
-
I think I have it ok now after tweaking every app. The main problem I still see is coloration around letters like "a". I do not see this on my laptop(which 3 years old).
-
My fonts look terrible after 2010 update. I have no problem with my laptop that updated last night, but my desktop looks terrible, no matter what I change. I have the same exact settings on both my laptop(looks great) and desktop. The resolution for my monitor is set correctly (1920 x 1080 24 inch screen). I'm not sure what else I can try. Any ideas besides reinstalling? Thanks. [moved from Software by Greg2]

My firefox 3 crashes all the time. It is becoming unusable. This is a new install. All plugins disabled.
-
It's hard to believe there is not a single reply. Nobody has ever had this problem?
-
I know this is old, but should still apply. I just installed kdebase-4.2.4 to my Mandriva Gnome install. Almost none of the base KDE Apps shown up in Gnome Menu. I have to use the run tool. I am looking for Kcontrol to change the look of the few KDE apps I want to run in Gnome. I can't find it. I thought it was called Kcontrol. EDIT: For anyone looking kcontrol is now "systemsettings".

Currently Mandriva sees my backup(2nd hard drive) as /backup which is good. However I want it to be mount under /mnt and not /media. How do I change this? There are no entries in /etc/fstab for this drive. I wan't to be able to see this drive mount when I boot in safe mode. Thanks.

I was able to get Gnome back in the session manager. Unfortunatly Gnome loads but there are no panels, right clicking mose does nothing. Just the desktop wallpaper is there.
-
I don't know what happened, but I lost the Gnome option in the login screen. The system now logs me into ICE. Gnome files are present. This happened right after I tried to reinstall Gnome Screensaver(wasn't working). I hate to have to install this all over again. I have a backup of my home dir if it helps.
-
I just did a new install of of Spring 2009 Gnome. Everything is working well with the exception of the Screensaver. I am able to test each screensaver and they work. However when the system invokes a Screensaver, I just get a blank screen. It seems to put my monitor in standby. I also have "lock screen" enabled, and that does not work either. I confirmed thw screensaver doesn't work with compized enabled or disabled. When the screensaver is invoked, it actually cuts the signal to the monitor as if in powersave mode. I have lock screen enabled, but it never asks me for my password.I have power settings at "Never". I didn't have this problem with KDE Cooker, Mint 7 or Suse 11.2 64bit.

This does not work. It does not take the changes I make and comes back at boot.
-
How do I stop Mandriva 2009 from automatically selecting wifi connections? I have a connection I can't prevent from activating.
-
I didn't know I could use anything and have tight integration. I like Thunar and will give it a shot. I can't right click on the icons. For some reason it crashes my desktop(2010 Cooker).
-
My needs are fairly simple. I don't like Dolphin, and Konquerer is a bit much for my needs. I have it set as default, but it seems like it is only for media files.
-
I have set Gwenview as the default file manager. However, it only works if I select my folders from plasma view. If I click on my "Home" desktop icon, the system launches Dolphin. Is this the way it is supposed to work? [moved from Software by spinynorman]

I am using Mandriva 2010 Cooker. It is running well. I want to have system snapshots as well as access to incremental file backups. What are some of you using? Do you use the Drakbackup software? There seems to be 2 different ones in MCC. Thanks. [moved from Software by Greg2]

Did you ever get this resolved? If so, can you please share? Thanks.

I am puzzled by how much harder it seems to be to deploy a theme in KDE 4.3 vs Gnome. I have Googled for an hour and can not find what I am looking for. Mandriva 2010 RC 1 64bit KDE4.3 How do I install a new theme and select it? How do I install a theme for Amarok? How do I change the look of the Taskbar (ie: remove candy stripe background)? I can't believe I am this clueless. In Gnome this takes a minute. I hope someone can help. Thanks. [moved from Art and Design by spinynorman]

OK after this, I tried using the HD Radeon Driver. Drake said to ignore broken xorg.conf, wrote a new one. Reboot and bang 3d and effects work. I compared the 2 xorg.confs and I really do not see a difference. I'm a bit perplexed.
