Hi all,
I'm new to the list and very new to linux so apologies to all if I'm asking any
blindingly obvious questions. Here's my problem. I have RedHat 5.2 which comes with
the KDE rpms but doesn't install them (legal issues at release time it says at
Sunsite.) So I installed them manually (rpm -ivh kde*), worked ok after I installed
the dependencies I got asked for (rpm -ivh qt*.) Went to opt/kde/bin and found the
file startkde. Ran ./startkde and got 8 or so Command NotFound messages, the first
being for Kaudioserver. I checked to see if the files are there and they are. Tried
just 'startkde'. Then tried from an x-terminal but got the same error.
The only information I found relevant was a sequence that would make KDE my default
Xwindows, I didn't think it'd work since all I'm doing is changing the command but I
tried it anyway. Same error messages.
I'm guessing there are maybe other files I need or a sequence of commands to get KDE
fuctional. (Couldn't find 'Kconfig' or anything close, though I did try 'unpack'
which did something, God knows what but didn't fix it.)
Thanks in advance if anyone can help,
jack daly
