How To Restore Default FIle Associations for Konq as Web Browser?
by L. Mark Stone 07 Mar '03

07 Mar '03

I mangled Konq's we browsing file associations and would like to restore them to their defaults. Right now, if I click on a URL shortcut on the desktop or in a folder, I get the "Open With..." dialog box (if the URL is for a remote web site). If the URL references a local file, the web page opens as text within Konq, i.e., Kinq is not rendering the page as a web page, but instead displaying it as a text editor. What to do? Thanks! -- ___________________________________________________________________ A Message From... L. Mark Stone http://www.lmstone.com

Can't execute "/opt/kde3/share/config/kdm/Xsetup" (err 2).
by Panos Platon Tsapralis 07 Mar '03

07 Mar '03

Hi, everybody! I see this message: Can't execute "/opt/kde3/share/config/kdm/Xsetup" (err 2) in my system log. I suspect that it has to do with the fact that I cannot setup a wallpaper in "kdm" (no matter what I select in KDE Control Center, KDE seems to ignore). What can I do to eliminate the message (and the problem)?

Re: [SLE] Help with upgrade to XFree 4.3.0

Got the same problem. On my account I was using MSfonts (comic sans, arial, etc) and after upgrading to XFree4.3.0 got no fonts some KDE applications or very large fonts. So I set all fonts to unifont and after that got the possibility to change to fonts back as I wanted. Also running "fc-cache -fc" or "fonts-config" seems to help (at least for other people, but not for me).

Fonts in KDE and X-windows.
by Panos Platon Tsapralis 07 Mar '03

07 Mar '03

Hello everybody, I am running Version 8.0 (fully updated) with KDE 3.0. My problem is that Greek fonts do not appear in certain areas of my applications (e.g. headers of e-mail messages in KMail). In general (in most areas of my setup: Konqueror, Opera, message bodies in KMail, etc.), Greek fonts are shown correctly. Also, OpenOffice does not display Greek characters (maybe this is off-topic to this mailing list, anyway, I am not sure that I am going to keep this program in my system - I dislike its look & feel...). Does anybody have any quick hints on where to look or how to resolve this?

Yast2
by Bill Hogsett 06 Mar '03

06 Mar '03

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I am confused. I am running 8.1 and KDE 3.1 and Yast2. My question is when I see a file highlighted in red on Yast2 I see that the installed version has a higher version number than the available version. Is the installed version, the version on my machine or on the server to which Yast2 has attached? I thought I had read somewhere that the color blue meant a new version was available, but the words confuse me. Installed where? Thanks!

06 Mar '03

I'm going crazy here! I have VNC running on Mac OS X I have VNC running on Windows XP I have VNC running on ReHat linux >From the linux or win xp machine I can SEE and interact with the OX X desktop. If I move the mouse I can look over at the os x screen and see the 'remote control' in action. Same thing with the linux and the os x machine ... I can control the win xp machine. But I CANNOT figure out how to connect to (and CONTROL) the linux box (running RedHat 8/bluecurve ... or Gnome ... whatever they call it) I am able to connect to the linux machine through vnc but I see a totally different desktop! I want to see exactly what's on the linux screen and interact with it. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! Eric Carbone

error in kdegraphics3.rpm package
by Tilo Winkler 06 Mar '03

06 Mar '03

If I try to install kdegraphics3.rpm v3.1-91 I get the error message: kdegraphics3-fax needs libkmultipage.so.0 But this file was included in kdegraphics3.rpm v3.0.4 and is available under /opt/kde3/lib I guess the developer forgot to include it because if I force to update rpm -Uvh --force --nodeps kdegraphics3.rpm the file gets removed from /opt/kde3/lib My suggestion for a workaround: - cp /opt/kde3/liblibkmultipage.so.0.0.0 /tmp # make a copy - # update the package using rpm -Uvh --force --nodeps kdegraphics3.rpm - mv /tmp/libkmultipage.so.0.0.0 /opt/kde3/lib - cd /opt/kde3/lib - ln -s libkmultipage.so.0.0.0 libkmultipage.so.0 - ln -s libkmultipage.so.0.0.0 libkmultipage.so Tilo

Starting the remote desktop client which is integrated in KDE-3.1 I get a message that SLP is not installed: Is there a SLP-implementation for SuSE-8.0? Couldn't find a package comment in the helpcenter.
