Lost tools in Konquerer
In updating SuSE from 7.1 to 7.3, I've lost a function that I use a lot. When I first open Konquerer, there is a set of two magnifying glasses in the tool bar for increasing or decreasing image size; worked GREAt in 7.1. Now, when I select an image to view, I loose these two icons. Does anyone know what I need to do to get them back? dave -- David C.

Settings->Configure Konqueror->File Associations->image-><image type you want to configure>->Embedding and make sure KView is the top choice

Do you have the kdegraphics package installed. On another subject: if you're in the upgrading mood, why are you upgrading to a version that has been discontinued, that isn't supported with security updates anymore?

It is marked as installed (i), but I don't know. Using YaST2 to install the software packages, there is no option for All of KDE as I'm familiar with in later releases,but there are options for kde K desktop environment) and k2de (KDE2 Desktop) and gra (all about graphics). None of these groupings shows KView as an option. Further, zall (all packages) and Applications Graphics fail to provide for a KView option. So I'm at a bit of a loss as to what to do next. ;-) dave

Last release of SuSE that supports the Corel WordPerfect Office 2000 Office Suite.

One box here still uses older SuSE just for Applixware Office Suite. For non-OSS binary-only apps that depend on old libraries, is there a safe way to add the old libraries back in with links so those apps can still be used, even if just for data recovery/conversion?

Generally speaking, you can copy the libraries you need into a directory, and put that directory into the environment variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH when you run the program. It's usually also possible to install them "properly" alongside the newer versions. SuSE usually has some sort of "compat" package with older libraries that does this

Thanks much :-) I don't avoid searching, but it sure helps to get pointers. WordPerfect and Applix probably require similar stuff.

O.K., I could use a little more advice here to see if I can get this suite going under 9.0 I know I need the older libraries libc-5.3.12-31 and id.so-1.9.5-11 or so I'm advised by a letter in response to a Linux Journal article entitled "Finally, Free Fix to Filtrix for WordPerfect 8 Linux Users" That being all I need, do I understand correctly that I simple put them in their own folder and make it know in the path? If so, exactly how do I place that variable in the LD_LIBRARY_PATH? Sorry to be so dense. Sadly, looking at the SuSE site I have no idea as to how to find the 'compat" package I need as I don't know exaclty what I'm searching to find. dave -- David C.

Try installing the package shlibs5. It has libc.so.5.4.46 and ld.so.1.9.9 (there's no such thing as id.so). They *should* work

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/path/to/directory then run the program *in the same shell as you ran the above export* You can also put that export line in your .bashrc
