I have to believe that the DEV Team over at KDE; are seeing that people are either switching to different desktop environments like Gnome, and Xfce. Or staying put on Kde 3.5.. I personally know of at least 10 people who have dumped Kde4 for gnome or Xfce. When i ask them why not switch back to 3.5. They saying sooner or later KDE will abandon 3.5 for 4+ with no more updates or fixes. And they don't want to be force into accepting it. So ya i think that seeing people leave, will cause kde to take a long hard look at kde4...

I'm sorry to say that because of KDE4 i dumped Mandriva off my system, Which is sad because i've been using it since"Venus" Mandrake 6.0 And yes i also installed Kde 3.5 but within Mandriva 2009 it ran terrible.. Right now PClinuxOS is rock soild.. And as for Kde 3.5 is was IMHO almost perfect. Again if KDE4 worked for you than Great, To me it's a matter of preference and resources. Hopefully Mandriva 2010 will bring me back. Hopefully Kde 4.2 will fix all the problems but we'll see. :)

hey Greg2 could you send that file so i can see what all the fuss is about :D Thanks.

I don't know if this would help but every heard of S.A.G.E? here is the link. http://www.sagemath.org/

neddie it happens to me when i copy a DVD.. Get to 50% and freezes but stills burn the DVD. but K3b is Frozen, at first i though it was something i did. The weird thing is i get no error messages. Maybe someone else has a idea why this is happening. -SC

Great Site

thanks guys.. My problem was with mplayer plugin once i reinstalled it... problem was fix.. Thanks again

Tried that, still getting the same problem.. I have notice if I double or triple click on the icon and open multiple instances.. One will work while the others crash. This is a Fresh install not and upgrade in case anyone was wondering.. I know how sometimes upgrading can cause more problems than it's worth :) .

Here you go Arctic Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.1.8) Gecko/20070914 Mandriva/2.0.0.8-1mdv2008.0 (2008.0) Firefox/2.0.0.8

Hello all, I'm having a problem starting Firefox sometimes it comes on, other times it crashes and i get this error :/usr/lib/firefox-2.0.0.8/run-mozilla.sh: line 131: 18011 Segmentation fault "$prog" ${1+"$@"} Does anybody know how i can fix this? thanks SC

Wow following in SCO footsteps is just plain stupid.. Then again coming for the same people that gave us, Winblows 95-Vista what can you expect? What companies need to do is start pointing out infringements M$ has done.. Everything they have copied from Unix down through Linux and Mac... For goodness sake how freaking greedy can a company be? Having 90% of the worlds PC's running your operating system is not good enough??? WTF Richmond!!!!! sorry for the Rant people but this really ticks me off. -sc

Thanks Iphitus for the Info :) spinynorman sry for posting in wrong area.

Well I was wondering what is a decent wireless PCI card that is compatible with Mandriva 2007. [moved from Networking by spinynorman]

Here is my May screen shot. ... screen shot

And there it is... When i get started with feisty.. I'll make sure to use Ubuntu with Kde-Core from the repo. Thanks Arty for the info. And now for waiting for the Power supply to come in. :) it's going to be a long 3 days.

So Arty are you saying that Ubuntu with the Repo Kde is better than Kubuntu? Wouldn't they be the Same???

They should at least gone with Kubuntu.. Or have the Kde Packages already install so the end user can chose. That's of course if this is true... Anyway still a good move for Linux in general.

I have the same problem.. the only way out is a hard reboot alt-crtl-del does not work..

have you guys tried going to the beryl rpms from cooker?? I installed them and i had Zero Problems remember you all need beryl-setting, emerald, emerald themes. by the way the cooker rpm is version 0.1.2 hope that helps -SC

Thanks to All but this is Resolved.. What i did was go to beryl using the cooker rpm's. added the needed "options" to my xorg.conf and shut off xgl so in a sense you were all right... So Thank You Guys :)

Dok, i looked at that post and my XGL=no. Still AIGLX will not work.. and more idea's? thanks shadow

Ok now that i installed the new Nvidia drivers the Aiglx option is selectable but nothings happens! XGL works (excepts for multiple users) but i don't want to use it.. i got no errors installing the drivers (they were nvidia .run drivers) Am i missing something????? sorry for the long post. this is
