KDE 3.2 and KIOSK tool

First off, I'm fairly new to linux so be gentle :lol:

I'm running Fedora core 1 with every update up2date had (as of a couple of days ago). I have LTSP installed and working and I updated KDE to 3.2 using yum. All went well. I then downloaded the KIOSK tool from KDE.org and extracted it and went to configure it (with ./configure) and it comes up with: error kdelibs not installed. So I go back to yum and type "yum install kdelibs" and it tells me the lastest version of kdelibs is installed. Where did I go wrong?

Also, and possibly related, when I access the K button (start button to windows dorks like me) all the menus and sub menus have a (!) after the first letter. Example: K(!)office or something similar. Are these two related? How do I fix them?

Thanks in advance!

I'm not sure but I think I recall that Fedora has KDE under /usr.
Does
./configure --prefix=/usr
help?

No idea about your other problem...

The ./configure --prefix=/usr did it. Thank you. After that I ran make then make install. What else do I need to do to install it?

About the other problem, I used yum to update qt and it appears to have fixed that problem as well.

Again, thank you.

Normally the "make install" should be enough.
I haven't used the kiosk tool yet, though,
so I can't help you with that.

Yes the make install was enough. I guess I was just trying to make it harder then it was!

Thanks
