Hi Robert, Check out KBear, which should be included. I don't have 9.1 yet, and I don't use 'Personal', but KBear should be there. PeterB On Saturday 08 May 2004 08:13 am, Robert Locke wrote:

Hi all,

Two simple(?) questions. I'm new on SuSE 9.9 personal.

Is there some ftp client with a user GUI included? How do I install things like gFTP(www.gftp.org)? With Yast or...? And then how?

(I really feel stupid, but I've tried and tried and it just seems to me like it's no way of adding any thing that's not included in the distibution. The rest looks pretty good with dependency checks and so. But I can't figure out how to include new things.)

And why isn't xemacs included in SuSE 9.0? Or is it? Well, Kate is ok, but it's not xemacs.

Best regards, Robert

I can't speak for Gnome, but in KDE there is a setting that allows you to integrate KBear into Konqeror. Makes it super convenient for doing any FTP stuff since then the client is part of your file manager, and you can copy paste to and from the FTP server as if it was just another local or network mount point.

What features does KBear offer that you can't get with just plain konqueror by using ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386.... etc.? -- Brad Shelton On Line Exchange http://www.ole.net Phone: 313-526-1111 Fax: 313-526-3333

Tanks, But I can't find it! I opened Control Center -> YaST2 modules -> Software -> Install and Remove Software and used that search function. No result. I took a shell man KBear which KBear whereis KBear without any luck. I even searched the 3 cd's with find /media/cdrom/ -name '*ear*' -print Where do I go wrong? And how do I install any kind of software with help of YaST2? Tanks, Robert

The command line is just kbear all in lower case It's part of one of the kdenetwork3 packages. Install them all off your cds, and if you still don't have it, go to the ftp.suse.com (or your nearest mirror) (you can use mozilla for this) and download all the kdenetwork3 packages that you don't have and install them. Or get gftp from www.usr-local-bin.org Hans -- Kind regards Hans du Plooy Newington Consulting Services hansdp at newingtoncs dot co dot za
