Since your SuSE is quite old, there are no RPMs available. So you would have to compile it yourself. You could also install SuSE 10, which is available from any openSuSE mirror and use the unoffcial supplementary-packages for KDE 3.5.1 which are available for every SuSE version not older than 2 years. Or even better, wait a few weeks till 10.1 is released on openSuSE, then you get official KDE 3.5.1 packages. Sven
Greatings! Is there a way to create bootable DVD from 5CDs located on Suse FTP? I want to create it under windows, but all the how-to-s are written for creating it under Linux. The idea is to make bootable DVD so I can install Linux. Thanks! Scorpy

It isnt simple as that. DVD which is located on FTP is eval only. CDs are the full version. With what did I hijacked threads? The question was about Suse. -----Original Message----- From: Peter M.

Scorpy, 1. Your post ended up in his thread because you hit "Reply" instead of "Compose" or "New Message to create your post in your e-mail client. "Reply" retains the existing (hidden) subject ID used by e-mail clients to group multiple posts together as threads. 2. Google search: "define: IIRC" (no quotes.) Google is quite helpful in these kinds of situations. 3. You will actually get *more* packages with the DVD image. All the answers to the questions you've asked so far are easily found at, or through, http://en.opensuse.org/Welcome_to_openSUSE.org It is *your* responsibility to do some research and reading, first, so you can ask smart questions here. Some people pay by bandwidth, so please be mindful of that and keep 'lazy' questions to a minimum. Finally, you see how I've responded to your post by quoting you, above, and answering below? That is called "bottom posting." Bottom posting is preferred here because it keeps the 'conversation' in a natural order, i.e. question, then the answer, comment, then the response and so on. regards, Carl

1. STOP top posting, it makes reading the thread in the archives horrible. 2. STOP using "reply to all" to answer a post there by sending TWO copies of your reply to someone trying to help you, one directly to them and the one from the list. 3.

Fourth, perhaps you might not top post on technical lists. I realize that for normal e-mails it's the defacto standard, but here it doesn't get warmly received. IIRC = If I Recall Correctly. Eval is a misnomer. It's the full open/non-retail version of 10.0

One thing you might want to try is a network install, where you actually install from the SUSE site. This way you only burn one CD and get the rest from the server.
