Hi,

I tried it on a plain 6.4-ppc and konqueror does not work at all, even ksplash does not work. We had to use the newer gcc from Franz to compile kde2 at all. There is proably a binary incompatibilty or such.

For short: kde2 works but you have no konqueror, no kword, no ksplash, no kspread, no killustrator ... ok. I gave up to try more stuff.

But hey, konsole works fine :=)

That is really strange. I built from tarballs the entire KDE 1.93 source just a month or so ago and ened up running Koquereor (and even testing its java interface with blackdown, testing the window manager to make sure it works with jdk 1.3, etc and it all worked fine. What versions of binutils, gcc, and glibc does SuSE 6.4 ship with? I have never heard of a binary incompatibility. People have reported that the jdk 1.3 works under SuSE 6.4 and it was built using gcc-2.93 2c, glibc 2.1.3, and binuitls 2.0.10.24. Hmm...something is very funny here. I am going to grab the KDE 2 source tarballs and do a build and create binary tarballs for people to grab and try on SuSE 6.4 . Kevin
