Everything was generally all right with a couple of minor exceptions. xchat wouldn't install, error opening package messages at the console when the graphic progress bar seemed to be hanging, and KDE doesn't load a desktop at all. Blue screen, not desktop or icons or taskbar, but the "KDE is starting" sound plays.
That IIRC is apparently because the KDE maintainer built the .80 version with the wrong compiler or some such. So for now, until I have a chance to do a bit of fixing and patching, I'm stuck with Ice-worm or GNOME or other. I can't install cooker for anyone that uses a KDE desktop from these disks. I'll take a swing at remastering the ISOs from my local 9.2 tree later today, adding the updates, and see if I get an installable set of disks, then report the results here. Thank [Deity] for CD-RWs. This could get expensive if I was forced to use CD-R disks. <g> Charlie - -- Edmonton,AB,Canada User 244963 at http://counter.li.org Cooker on kernel 2.4.22-19mdk 10:35:31 up 17:27, 2 users, load average: 0.05, 0.11, 0.09 Knock, knock!
