Manager, and only then to think about ejecting. Yes, this is different from what I have seen in the laptop machine (which also runs exactly the same kde 4.3.5-0.1.1 as this desktop machine), in which a simple icon, with a powerful menu, does everything in an intuitive way and in fewer steps. In other words, one can't profit from experience on one installation and predict what will happen on a second installation of exactly the same kde release. Personally, I don't think that's anything to be proud of. I think there is a real advantage in consistency, but that doesn't seem to be much valued in KDE4..
Dunno... I've installed 11.2/KDE4.3 and 4.4 dozens of times on a variety of machines (EEE PCs, misc laptops, a variety of desktop PCs, VirtualBox sessions etc) and it's the same every time. They key being that the "same" means the same exact build of KDE4... be it KDE4.1, 4.3.5, or 4.4 and 4.5Beta... when I compare the same version.. it behaves the same. Comparing 4.2 with 4.5, you will def see differences in how the desktop works. How many of the problems you're having are related to your borked install and update? (previous threads) I'd be looking there first. This install has not gone well from the beginning.. sound is not working right, your update broke half way through etc etc. The Device notifier has been changed a lot since 4.0. In 4.4/4.5Beta and 4.3.5 it operates as described in this thread. The main difference between 4.3.5 and 4.5 Beta is that it is now merged into the systray instead of being an independent widget. It is also still available as a separate widget as well... but the merge into the systray makes it much easier to find/use etc. C. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
