Sounds like a nifty application but using urpmi to install it didnt go the way that I had planed.

 

I downloaded superkaramba-0.29-1mdk.i586.rpm into my rpm directory then:

 

[root@home rpm]# ls

superkaramba-0.29-1mdk.i586.rpm

 

[root@home rpm]# urpmi superkaramba-0.29-1mdk.i586.rpm

unable to register rpm file

Everything already installed

[root@home rpm]#

 

Looks like I didn't trash the system, so where do I go from here to setup and use superkaramba?

 

mandrake version 9.1

 

Somehow I was expecting urpmi to do more :?

But not trashing the system is a very good start. :)

 

Any ideas? I'm lost on this one!

I use superkaramba. love it. it may just be eyecandy, but some of the news apps, and calender programs are really useful. plus having an OSX bar in fluxbox is just the sh!t.

I've installed superkaramba and wanted to use the 'slickbar' from kde-look.org.

This requires PyKDE (which in turn requires PyQt & SIP) all this then seems to require a setup of Qt3 which is slightly different to the pre-packaged setup on a standard mandrake9.1 install. I'm having a hell of a time trying to install PyKDE because my python won't 'import qt'. I've been told from the mail-lists on PyKDE about re-building Qt3 with cirtain things enabled etc but this seems to just screw up my installation and I don't know where i'm at!

 

Has anyone else had this trouble? If so, to save me keep going round in circles or keep re-building mdk to get Qt3 back to normal, has anyone got a simple step way of doing this?

 

many thanks for any help

Austin.
