solarian Posted May 25, 2005 Report Share Posted May 25, 2005 There is a lite version - install only those KDE packages that you need. I don't select KDE upon installing Mandrake, and install KDE later, with just the things I need, nothing more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll try it next time i format. (Which is like every 2 days for me -_-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solarian Posted May 25, 2005 Report Share Posted May 25, 2005 LOL! You don't need to format for that. Just delete all things KDE from some other window manager (fluxbox) and then install KDE anew. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So i'm either going to install Debian or Mandrake again, haven't decided. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solarian Posted May 25, 2005 Report Share Posted May 25, 2005 oh, i.c., I thought you use Debian by your banner. MDV2005 is very nice. KDE 3.4 is quite faster than the previous versions. At least on my box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only thing i don't like about mandrake is the evil RPMs. :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamw Posted May 25, 2005 Report Share Posted May 25, 2005 Evil RPMs? Where? I'll send out a squad of Good RPMs to head them off ;) solarian: clamav is mostly used for server-side (mailserver, etc) filtering and mostly for checking for Windows viruses, yeah. That's not _all_ it works for, though. It can be used as a conventional client-side scanner and it does check for Linux viruses (yeah, both of them...). There's even a KDE front end, these days: http://klamav.sourceforge.net/ . Not sure if we have that packaged, yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kristi Posted May 26, 2005 Report Share Posted May 26, 2005 One of the first things I tried with 10.1 was klamav - a gui'ed clamav and it installed perfectly, using MCC as I recall. It's available on MCC for 2005. I don't run one yet on 2005. I did hear som caveat on cooker about clamav not being updated or something - really vague. But klamav is an intense AV Kristi EDIT - being bored at 5am... I installed klamav with MCC software install. Install was quick and easy. I found the klamav icon in Menu, System, FileTools. It asked if it could update, I said yes. didn't take too long. Clicked on the scan tab and since it was pointing at my /home/kristi/ I told it OK. Took about 5 minutes. A full system scan takes a long time. The scan found 4 things it didn't like and quaranteened them. I'll check them tomorrow. It was really hard work enabling this AV checker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
