[S.u.S.E. Linux] KDE: hangs
by srr03＠tid.es 29 Apr '98

29 Apr '98

I've tried to open three or four filemanagerwindows, with a web page on two of them, and perhaps more things. I don't remember. Anyway, KDE hangs. It stops and I have to kill it. I don't know if it's because it's a beta or what. I prefer to use the fvw2 or the fvw95. They work quite good. Although I recognize that if KDE worked better, I wouldn't doubt about changing definetely of window manager. KDE is really good, much better than any others. Most of all for people that come from MSwindows. But it hangs. A pity. Bye.

Re: [S.u.S.E. Linux] linuxconf?

Yeah, I agree with that... this is Linux, not m$ But you don't have to blame to people from S.u.S.E. ! They _are_ making excellent work, and they don't stop adding new packages in their distribution (think about Enlightenment as an example), and there are that many new software & projects with Linux.... they can't do it all ;-) But I like the idea of the S.u.S.E. people testing the packages a lot before putting'em in their distribution... And it's a good thing they don't put _everything_ !! We wouldn't have anything to install !? ;-) If you want linuxconf, just download it from sunsite or so... and install it (it's really ease, so...)

Well now, don't I feel silly?? All that whining about the ppp and all of a sudden it works! I have no idea why. All I did was take a break and come back and try it again. Bingo!!! There are certainly worse things that could inexplicably happen. Thanks mc -- To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo(a)suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e

I've GIVEN UP on getting sound to work on my Linux 5.1 installation. When I found out 5.2 doesn't offer any extra sound support as RedHat now does, I called and had my name removed from the Constant Upgrade program... ... perhaps I'll try RedHat with that money... or perhaps just wait until SuSE gets a clue...

It is a very comfortable and easy to configure package. You can find it at: <A HREF="ftp://ftp.caldera.com/pub/mirrors/tsx-11/sources/usr.bin/mpage24.tar.gz"><A HREF="ftp://ftp.caldera.com/pub/mirrors/tsx-11/sources/usr.bin/mpage24.tar.gz</A">ftp://ftp.caldera.com/pub/mirrors/tsx-11/sources/usr.bin/mpage24.tar.gz</A</A>> e.g. For one side per page use mpage -1P <Filename> For two sides per page use mpage -2P <Filename> For a duplexprinter use mpage -xtP <Filename> (x=number of pages per page) and so on .... Additionally it is possible to us it in Netscape instead of lpr. You can save a lot of paper with it. Try it and love it...:-)) (.....comments ?? ;-)) Ps.: Is mpage in the SuSE 5.1 dist included ? I didn't found it... -- Regards Marius Augenstein -- To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo(a)suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e
