I just installed the 1.94 rpm's from cooker the night before last. I can not get kde2 to work hardly at all. However, kdebase would not install from the rpm. I d/l'ed it twice from different sites and the same error of some file being unable to be unpacked. kde2 will come up, but hardly anything works. Anyone know where to find a good rpm for kdebase? Also, I can not rpm -e any kde files. I was thinking of removing kde altogether and then try a fresh install of it. rpm -e file.rpm wont let me due to dependency probs. How can I remove more than one rpm at a time? the * wildcard doesn't work. -----Original Message----- From: Sarang Lakare [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, October 02, 2000 11:22 PM To: Mandrake Expert List; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [expert] KDE 2 problems continue.. Hi guys, Is anyone out there trying out KDE 2 regularly? I still have the following problems.. 1. KControl still crashes (both command line and non-command line) 2. Konqueror is still a bit buggy when it comes to file management 3. KSpread and KWord are crashing once in a while 4. KAutorun, which I thought was a very tidy application, and which in my opinion should have been started by default by Mandrake, is no more there! 5. Quanta that comes with 7.2 beta dosn't start either! 6. Application Launcher Applet is totally screwed up!.. It just can't get focus.. and it dosn't remember the apps I ran on the previous login! 7. Memory Usage.. when I login with nothing running, memory usage is 60MB!! How do we expect people with 32 and 64MB machine to ever run Mandrake 7.2!!! (I use 1600x1400 resolution) These are the problems I remember.. there are few others too.. What I want to know is.. Is it me who is getting these problems (I installed/upgraded KDE 2 on my 7.1 machine.. I havn't tried 7.2 beta yet)? Or does 7.2 beta installation run smoothly? I definitely hope 7.2 dosn't ship with these bugs! .. a bad name for linux, KDE and Mandrake is what we'll get in return :( On the +ve side.. Konqueror is extremely fast for browsing now (though Mozilla is caching up too!) Infact I like the way Mozilla renders pages than the way Konqueror does.. Mozilla dosn't move things around.. Konqueror does... neway, Mozilla takes up 20Mb or more!! Konqueror is just around 4MB. -sarang
