hey all,
A question about KDE 3.4.2 what is the best to do?
a) uninstall kde 3.4.0 and install the new packages
or
b) do the install as rpm -U --force --nodeps *.rpm
Neither. Use YaST... 1. Go to "Change Source of Installation". 2. Click on "Add->FTP" 3. Put "ftp.gwdg.de" in server field 4. Put "pub/linux/suse/ftp.suse.com/suse/i386/supplementary/KDE/update_for_9.3/yast-source" in the directory field. 5. Click OK. Now... 1. Go to "Install and Remove Software". 2. Change Filter to "Package Groups". 3. Select "zzz All" at bottom of list. 4. From menu at top, select Package -> All in this list -> Update if newer version available. 5. Change Filter to "Installation Summary". You should see many KDE packages selected for update. 6. Click Accept and finish up the install as usual. After this, you may need to restart X to get your GUI back again. (I needed to.) I did this by logging in at one of the text mode consoles (Ctrl-Alt-F1) and entering: # telinit 3 # telinit 5 I also found that "My Computer" didn't work right until I powered off/on the system. Probably didn't need to be that drastic but I didn't feel like fiddling around. This may not be a problem for you -- I have been having "My Computer" problems all along.
