  1. I'm using rdesktop to connect to windows 2000 server where is installed application for me. The problem is that in this application I must use com port for one of my device. Is it possible to intercept a COM port on windows server to have a result on COM port in my computer using rdesktop? Maby there is another application to remote connect to windows serwer (like ica for citrix) where I can use my local com port for application instaled on windows serwer?

  2. Ok everything what iphitus said is true:-))

    But i'm interesting in blocking icons on desktop, that anyone can't move this icons. You know, I click on icon, hold left mouse button pressed and i wont to move icon in another part of a screen. I wont to block that action. I know that there is such a option in Mandrake but I have forgotten where. I wos trying to find it but ... :wall:

  4. I'm using KDE 3.1.

    I don't have the MDK Star on my panel (i have dele it long time ago:-( ) But I think this is the same like kcontrol . I dont't have a feedback too because I have deleted all man's,doc's etc..

  5. Hello:-)

     

    I have a question and I think most of You know the answer, but I unfortunately don't.

    After I click on icon to launch a program, the mouse pointer is not changing so I don't know that program is loading or not(I;m waiting for launch ,but in middle time sometimes I clik on it again and lauch it again:-( ). Can I change mouse pointer behaviour that afther running program, while the program is loading, the mause pointer will change?

  6. OK, I have download and install this package. I use drakloop command and the window was a window there I write the path to a directory with I want to secure. I have written a password(20 characters min?), then I have pushed ok and the windows has closed. After that when I click on my secured directory but now there is only directory lost+found. Ok but how I can see what really there is. I have fought that after clicking on this directory the window will show where I write a password and I see the right content.

  7. Hello Ronan.  We all should know the need to be careful about being in ROOT.  But some of us are  also quite bemused at the almost paranoid concern by others for OUR OWN COMPUTERS.  I am like our good friend BVC ( and I mean that)  and many others in that we accept that root is a place to be careful in but we are not terrified to be in it or careless in it. 

     

    I personally do not find the Command line easy to use for other than installing some tarball source applications.  So su..ing in a console is not a personal preference for most other things.  Going into root and doing what I want to do in graphical mode is my choice........I do what I want to do and then I exit.......no fuss, no bother. 

     

    I am thankful for this threads original poster,  te-tsuo,  in informing me where I can make this kind of  change.  :thumbs: 

    I have been trying for ages to change the "fire" red to something different that still subtly reminds me I am entering root without being visually blasted with a red screen. 

     

    te-tsuo,  I just hunted to where you recommended but am not sure what changes to make so could you please give more detail for one who is not a programmer but can follow instructions  competently???

     

    Cheers.                                    John.

     

     

    A number of people have made the comment that the red login screen

    is to warn you that you are running in root. I understand the hazards of

    running in root, but if I just typed in "root" and then the root password

    I don't really need to be reminded that I'm logging in as root. Otherwise

    it's our sys and I can change anything if I want to!!!Really!!

     

    P.S. If anyone like blue rather then red I think he can change it on blue keeping in mind that blue screen is when he is login as root!

     

    AussieJohn, there are Your details ;

     

    In /etc/X11/ and edit Xsession

     

    You mast find

     

    #Mandrake default background

    if ["'whoami'" = root];then

    xsetroot -solid "XXXXXX"

     

    You mast change XXXXXX to i.e. 21449C - for some kind of blue :-)

     

    and that is all:-)

    You don't need to worry about in /usr/bin/startkde I think. Any trouble please write to me on priv!

I'm interested in turning off this button for all (f.e. when i right click on icon in my desktop there shows me a menu -> i wont to turn it off, or thre is a menu when I right click on panel -> I must turn it off too). I can't find any option to turn off right mouse button globaly. Maby there is this in some file? If You have any idea how to turn it off please halp me :-)
