MM,
When instaling tar, I decompress with Konqueror and place the decompressed file in a self made directory. Then I link it to the desktop.
Is there no better way to do this? It works, but I think sometimes (like with opera), I lack dependicies. I use for the moment mdk 8.1 Download Edition, but waiting for 9.1 Pro.

Hi Toran,
How are you using konqueror to extract the tar? If you mean using konqueror to read and "extract" a tar archive via cut and paste, you will often get 'expected directory, found file' errors. Always open a terminal and tar the archive via the command line; this way you will also be able to use the arguments as you see fit.
