allanman Posted March 11, 2009 Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 Mandriva 2009.0 KDE 4.2.1 packages available - With Qt 4.5.0 final! Submitted by heliocastro on Thu, 03/05/2009 - 00:17 Arrived the time of year of doing another test upgrade for Mandriva users. This time is a little bit special, since you will be using Qt 4.5.0 final, with all our efforts to make it stable with backports, annoying some KDE devels ( thanks dfaure and Thiago ), etc. Standard urpmi repositories are available. README for some detailed information. *** I do not what to get kde 4.2 on Mandriva can some explain how to do? point by point, I've tried to put the line with the new entry but it does not work. Where should it be deployed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kieth Posted March 11, 2009 Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 You need to update your repositories. Click on the icon "configure your computer". Type in the root password. Click on "configure media sources for install and update". In the top left corner, click on "File". Click on "Add a custom media". On "type of media", choose "FTP server". In media name, add whatever name you want, such as KDE4.2.1. In URL, add a media url, such as this for a 586 system, or this for an x86_64 system. Then click the box "Tag this medium as an update medium". Click "OK", and you can then update. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

allanman Posted March 11, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 Yes it is dangerous. Very dangerous. It is all gone. 2 days of work lost. Bye Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kieth Posted March 11, 2009 Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 Gone? Can you explain what happened? By adding a source, you do not loose anything. By updating, you do not loose anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allanman Posted March 11, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 It could only take some of it and installed it. There was a lot so it came to be so strange that I deleted it. It could not find things on the server Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allanman Posted March 11, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 Perhaps I should not have said yes to install the proposed since missing much. Pretty much. The server did not have it all, far from it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
{BBI}Nexus{BBI} Posted March 11, 2009 Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 Yes it is dangerous. Very dangerous. It is all gone. 2 days of work lost.
