binary is 'kdf' and is provided by kdeutils... rpm
( I'm usin kdeutils-2.2.1-1tex thanks to Texstar ;)
If you still can't find it holler back with what Mandrake and/or
kde version you're runnin. IIRC, kdf has been included for a long
time, altho it might'a not been included in one of the 7.x releases.
For a quick chk, type (in a terminal)
~ $ which kdf [and it should return] /usr/bin/kdf
If it does, and you still can't find the app on your menu, try
typing 'kdf' in a terminal to run to program. [ kdf is typical Linux
shorthand for Kdiskfree ]
To check for an installed kdeutils...rpm, type
~ $ rpm -qa kdeutils
If you don't show a kdeutils rpm, then make sure you're rpm
database is up to date, as root, type....
~ $ su
Password:
/home/tom # rpm --rebuilddb
[ignore the home/tom part, it's just the dir I was in]. In all the
above examples, the ~ $, or #, is just my prompt, so don't type that
part either ;) ....and try again.
If you don't have kdeutils installed, Software Manager would be
an easy way to to get 'em. Just type 'kdeutils' in the search box.
