OT: Where to get KDE2.1 on cdrom
Anyone know where to get the latest and final 2.1 release on cdrom? I checked a few places, all have 2.01. Also,for those with fast connections, the kde site has a place for SuSE, but no rpms yet. Not sure if the redhat rpms will work as well. joe
Joe, If you don't mind downloading it, official KDE mirrors now have SuSE RPM's. Take a look at ftp.sourceforge.net/pub/mirrors/kde/stable/ . Perhaps YaST2's YOU function in 7.1 could download it for you (I haven't got my copy of 7.1 installed yet)? -Tim ----------------------------------------------------------------- Timothy R.

Downloaded it this morning (which made me 15 minutes late to work hehe). Just had enough time to look at Konqueror...Looks real good thus far. Only thing, I only had 3 icons on the desktop.... Matt On Tue, 27 Feb 2001, Timothy R. Butler wrote:

Konqueror is awesome!!!! BTW, if you want to set a 'home page' then you need to edit the filemanger configuration,not the browser configuration. It is especailly good at downloading from ftp sites. Just use a split window, with your local directory in the left panel and the ftp directory in the right. Then select one or more files and or directories and drag them to a directory in the left panel and drop them them. I downloaded the intire 7.0 update of KDE2.01 that way with a single drag and drop. I think something like 300 files came over. The popup progress dialog was well designed in relating how many had been downloaded, how long it took and how many remained and how long that should take. I've found only a few M$ based sites that didn't display well. JLK On Tuesday 27 February 2001 14:26, Matthew wrote:

Thanks, I have a slow connection and not sure what all I need. I do have SuSE 7.1 on the way, my son lives near Philadelphia Pa and picked it up at a Best Buy yesterday, so the next time he visits I will be installing SuSE 7.1. He has dsl so maybe he can also download kde 2.1 and bring that along <G> joe

Well I downloaded all the rpms and it seems to have broken something. Really wierd the only obvious problem is that once a window is minimized it won't come back. If I right click on the window name in the panel I see minimize check marked so I click on maximize. Instead of changing from min to max it just shows both checked-(( Also it broke licq for some reason but I fixed that. Nick
I have just subscribed to their user list. I do not like there silly applet system, you can easily add an applet, but there is no obvious way to remove them. Is there a chance that you have not installed all of them? Maybe some library or function missing? Does not seem to be as stable as I had hoped, maybe we are missing something?
