bigjohn Posted March 12, 2006 Report Share Posted March 12, 2006 I notice that there is a newer version of xorg for me to install (6.9.0-5 something or other). so do I have to remove the older version first and then add the newer version or is there some way of doing this all at once - presumably with CLI because I suspect that if I removed the older version of Xorg first the GUI would crash before I could install the newer version?? could someone direct me (or advise me how) to any link/advice on how this would be done? Also, I spotted the link to the newer version of KDE, as provided by Thac and/or Ze (kde 3.5.1), which I'd like to use if I can. I managed to sort it to install the 3.5.0 version but for the life of me, I can't remember how I did this i.e. add the repository (something I'd normally do with easyurpmi). Maybe someone could point me towards any advice/instruction for that as well (yes I have searched but don't understand the advice/instruction that I've read). Many thanks in advance. regards John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devries Posted March 12, 2006 Report Share Posted March 12, 2006 You can install Xorg from within Xorg. After you installed it just reboot X with ctr-alt-backspace. There are install instructions for KDE 3.5.1 in the workbench forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
