[SuSE Linux] Error makeing KDE app from tar file source.

I have encountered this similar error many times while attempting to make KDE apps from sources on the KDE site. I admit freely I don't know much in this area. I simply follow instructions in the INSTALL file. I have got a few to work. My latest attempt was on Kdpms-0.2.5. Below are the last few lines echoed back during the make. make[3]: Leaving directory '/home/jfrye/kdpms-0.2.5/kdpms/doc' make[2]: Leaving directory '/home/jfrye/kdpms-0.2.5/kdpms' Making all in po make[2]: Entering directory '/home/jfrye/kdpms-0.2.5/po' file=./'echo de | sed 's,.*/,,`'.gmo\ && rm -f $file && msgfmt -o $file de.po /bin/sh: msgfmt: command not found make[2]: *** [de.gmo] Error 127 make[2]: Leaving directory '/home/jfrye/kdpms-0.2.5/po' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/jfrye/kdpms-0.2.5' make: *** [all-recursive-am] Error 2 make[3]: Leaving directory '/home/jfrye/kdpms-0.2.5/kdpms/doc' make[2]: Leaving directory '/home/jfrye/kdpms-0.2.5/kdpms' Making all in po make[2]: Entering directory '/home/jfrye/kdpms-0.2.5/po' file=./'echo de | sed 's,.*/,,`'.gmo\ && rm -f $file && msgfmt -o $file de.po /bin/sh: msgfmt: command not found make[2]: *** [de.gmo] Error 127 make[2]: Leaving directory '/home/jfrye/kdpms-0.2.5/po' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/jfrye/kdpms-0.2.5' make: *** [all-recursive-am] Error 2 Any help here would be appreciated.

Thanks for the suggestion on the OSS for the sound blaster pnp. I appreciate the "free software" community, but I may buy the OSS if it works for me. Linux can and has broadened my knowledge horizons and I don't mind contributing to those, who may in the end contribute to a higher income for me, not to mention better entertainment! Thanks again!

[SuSE Linux] SuSE and Hardware

I now have a new Tyan S1590S Trinity 100AT , a universal socket 7 motherboard. This coupled with my AMD-K6 300Mhz is really nice. <4>Calibrating delay loop.. ok - 599.65 BogoMIPS :) Having 192 megs of fast dram doesn't hurt either. My next project is my Matrox G200 AGP w/8megs sittin on the bookshelf, when SuSE 5.3 shows up. The "1024KB level 2 pipeline burst cache" is really nice also. If you want a nice socket 7 100Mhz bus MB, I recommend this one. Of course this runs a Linux only system. -Dee --------------------------------------------------- W.D.McKinney (Dee) deem(a)wdm.com <A HREF="http://www.wdm.com"><A HREF="http://www.wdm.com</A">http://www.wdm.com</A</A>> "The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few." --------------------------------------------------- - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo(a)suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e

[SuSE Linux] text only emails
by kevcol＠yahoo.com 04 Sep '98

As an added clarifying note, Netscape's mail clients on any platform can also be be culpable for this.. as I am sure there are several others. The moral of course, is to be aware of what kind of messages you are sending out to hundreds of users who use many different applications to read your notes. If your email contains formatted text when you look at it after it has returned to you on the SuSE list, then you need to dig into your preferences and change it to Plain Text Only. And if you don't know what kind of email you are sending out, than you should check anyway! ;-) ---Arne W Flones <flonesaw(a)netonecom.net> wrote: > > > This is a Linux mailing list.

Re: [SuSE Linux] HD Help

This is the alternative I chose: For a WD 4.3 UDMA I created partitions of 528 Mb, initially. I later went back and tailored my partitions to sizes I thought I would need keeping / below the first 1024 cylinder barrier with root using a mere 100M, /usr 1 Gb, /opt 500 Mb, and /home 100 Mb. It may not make for the most optimum system, but it does work and I am, also, running RedHat 5.1 and Debian 2.0 not to mention OS/2 Warp 3.0 and all booting from the boot manager with the help of LILO. Buy the way, just ti reiterate / in every case is below 528Mb. Best regards, Bob Russell kc8chq(a)juno.com Penguin inside! Now THAT'S Cool!

[SuSE Linux] Umax Scanner with proprietary card
by zentara＠mindspring.com 04 Sep '98

04 Sep '98

Hi, I read the man page for sane-umax and understand that Sane propably won't work with the proprietary Umax scsi card. It mentions a possible command line executable that may work. Has anyone got a Umax scanner going with the Umax scsi card? I have an Astra 1200S. I'm using 5.1, does 5.3 offer better support for Sane?

Has anyone tried this before? I saw it on the SUSE site and it will import/export M$ stuff and could finally get rid of Office97 and Windows once and for all. Is it worth the $95 ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at <A HREF="http://www.hotmail.com"><A HREF="http://www.hotmail.com</A">http://www.hotmail.com</A</A>> - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo(a)suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e

Actually one other thing- you can put this source code into your /home directory, untar the directory and compile it there. It does not need to be in a bin directory. The compile will place the binaries in the proper location. _________________________________________________________ DO YOU YAHOO!?
