Maybe he never tried it with LM 7.2 beta 3, but this method doesn't work for
that. I guess I'll just wait until some site starts posting iso files for
cooker. What exactly is the difference between the 1.94 version of KDE and
the 2.0 version?

: : I do not know why people complain about too many dependencies when they
: : install KDE2 on Mandrake 7.1. It is not too bad.
: : I do like this:
: : From konsole or from Gnome (terminal) I do "urpme qt" (for KDE 1.1.2)
: or/and urpme qt2
: : if there was a previous KDE2beta install, to remove all packages that
: depends on qt. Then I delete all .kde folders & files, (in home &
/etc/skel
: directories) as well as /usr/share/apps, /usr/share/applink
: : & /usr/share/config folders.
: : Then I install (& upgrade) bzip, openssl, alsalib, rpm, htdig, lesstif,
: xinitrc, menu, menudrake &
: : mandrake_desk packages (10 small packages -that's it).
: : Next is qt2.
: : After that, I have experienced that is extremelly important to install:
: : 1.kdesupport
: : 2.kdelibs & kdelibs-sound
: : 3.kdebase
: : and so on.
: : People who do not want to upgrade to XFREE86-4.0.1 should force on
: : libXaw.so when they install kdemultimedia package.
: :
: : The only problem I encountered (which I've allready posted to cooker) is
: that
: : you must add text files to /etc/X11/wmsession.d for each windows manager
: : beside KDE2, because after install of KDE2 there is only file 01KDE in
: : wmsession.d . For example, file which you have to name 02Gnome with
: : this in it:
: : NAME=Gnome
: : ICON=gnome.xpm
: : DESC=Gnome desktop
: : EXEC=/usr/bin/gnome-session
: : SCRIPT:
: : exec /usr/bin/gnome-session
: :
: : which, of course, was a part of the old windowsmanagers file.
: :
: : I people do like this, they will not have any problem running KDE2 on
: Mandrake 7.1 .
: :
: : P.S. I am really sorry, that Pixie was removed from KDE2.
