KDE2 Rpms ar on contrib and seem to work tolerably well, but first one has to
DL openssl,
and even with
ln -s /usr/bin/perl5.6.0 /usr/local/bin/perl
the blasted sdk rpm complains about no perl in /usr/local/bin
I did a --nodeps install and I get segfaults here and there and some
freezeups that need ctrl-alt-backspace.
Anyone have any idea what other resources need to be symlinked at
/usr/local/bin to keep KDE2 happy?
Next item--I used David Faure's advice on kde1-and-kde2.html and all the user
I set up to test kde2 can use is KDE2, which comes up no matter what I
select. Furthermore, kdm does not show the KDE2 choice even after
/etc/rc.d/init.d/mandrake_everytime. It also appears that
/etc/X11/.Xsessions is an artifact--a nice script no longer executed, and I
am still looking for where things happen.
On the other hand--KDE2 is definitely quite nice. I sold a Windows user
die-hard by showing him KDE2.
