Hi All & Kaare Rasmussen, who typed... <snip>
Looking over the messages posted here, I'm trying to decide if I should install KDE 2.1.1. It seems that there's a nasty bug, with no known workaround or fix, pertaining to
I'd recommend installing. The first rpms for 2.1.1 did have a problem (I was one of the people who discovered that!), but if you install from the current ftp site, everything should be OK.
<snip> I have been following this thread for a bit. Here is my experience. KDE 2.1.1, ex SuSE dated the 25th of March, went into my machine ok.... But KDE was a tad dodgy, with Vmware, so.... KDE 2.1.1, ex SuSE dated around the 8th of April, killed my KDE ./root/./kde2 directory contents.... No amount of yast or various rpm tricks, would recreate those key pointers, so I eventually re-installed SuSE 7.1 pro (I must register....), & then I used rpm, to finally upgrade to the April 8th batch. Sigh. The moral of this story is the oldest in the book, when yall asked if yall wanna back up, before installing in Yast-1, say YES!!!! :-) Sigh.... That is what I have to convey about KDE 2.1.1...... *BFN* Greek Geek :-) "If Jesus came back today, and saw what was going on in his name, he'd never stop throwing up." -- Max Von Sydow's character in "Hannah and Her Sisters"
