Quoted Originally posted by sballe Hi I use the advanced panel to make xplanet generate the background. I try to find the jpg generated by the system. I tried to use dcop with : dcop kdesktop KBackgroundIface currentWallpaper 1 But the answer is a blank line. I tried with 0 or others but no help. Once I will have found it, I will want to archive it. Next question will be how to refresh it from the command line. . I use KDE 3.5 on slackware 12. Thanks Sam I'm not sure where the file generated by...
Quoted Originally posted by Psquared Kmail by default tries to put the reply to an email below the quoted email I am replying to. I see no way to change this. Thunderbird allows this to be changed as well as the location of the signature. Is there a way to configure Kmail to put the reply ABOVE the quote?? I've not tried this myself as I prefer to read the question before the answer. After looking through the configure dialogue, I think this should work: Settings -> Configure KMail... -> Compos...
Quoted Originally posted by Snejok Hi! Where i can change KDE default language? Thanks! This may not be the exact wording as I'm using KDE in Swedish and translating back to English: KDE Control Center -> Regional & Accessibility -> Country/Region and Language (This is for KDE 3)
You're probably searching for Gnome Control Center. If you start it from the command line or from the "Run command" dialog, the name of the binary is gnome-control-center. You should search for an entry name something like Preferred programs. I'm retranslating back from Swedish to English so I don't know the exact wording. There you can select preferred mail reader and web browser.
I find that KDE-Forum now looks better, but I agree with many of the earlier posters that it's a bad idea not to use the entire screen width. Another thing I dislike is that viewed and unviewed topics have the same color.
Click the tooltip button (the question mark on the title bar) and click on the comment file. If you can't find it the format is: Quoted filename1: description filename2: description and so on...
Have you tried urpmi? Head over to http://plf.zarb.org/~nanardon/ and follow the instructions. Alternatively you can go to http://rpmfind.net and search for missing libraries there.
What you want to do is to find out where your swap partition is. Type Quoted fdisk -l /dev/hdg and the swap partition should have Linux swap in the "System" column. If you don't specify /dev/hdg it should list all disks, but that didn't work for me, and this reduces the output. And again, you don't mount your swap spaces. You create your swap space with mkswap /dev/hdgX (replace /dev/hdgX with your swap partition), add the following line to /etc/fstab Quoted /dev/hdgX swap swap defaults 0 0 (rep...
I'm using Mandrake 9.2 beta which includes cfdisk which is an easier to use and interactive version of fdisk. fdisk can do the same job, but it's not as easy to use. Just use fdisk <device> and replace <device> with your device, /dev/sdg or something similar. Quoted cat /proc/partitions shows the names of your partitions, but if you like me are using devfs they will look like this ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/disc instead of /dev/hda. You can find the shorter versions in the /dev/ directory if yo...
You don't mount swap partitions like normal filesystems. First run cfdisk (as root) to find out the name of the partition (some partitioning software creates the partitions from 4 and down to 1). Then mkswap to create the swap space and finally swapon to activate the swap space.
The only way I know of to get Mandrake RPMs for KDE 3.1.2 you're willing to run cooker. If you want to run cooker (developer version of Mandrake) head over to Easy Urpmi to configure urpmi. Then upgrade KDE with urpmi kdebase and other KDE packages. Please note though that this is development versions.
Do you have the devel packages installed?
Windows filesystems doesn't support the same access rights as traditional UNIX filesystems and can't be changed with chmod/chown. Instead they are set when mounting the filesystem with mount or in the /etc/fstab file. For more informaion see manual pages for mount and fstab.
Go to Control Center -> Appearance & Themes -> Style -> Effects -> Menu effect and select Make Translucent. If you're using High performace liquid there's an extra menu called Mosfet's Liquid with some extra goodies.
Change the window to your liking (size, start page etc.) and select Settings -> Save Profile (or something similar, I'm translating from Swedish here).
When I start kscd I get thie message kdecore (KAction): WARNING: KAction::plugAccel(): call to deprecated action. repeated 15 times. What have I done wrong and how do I fix it?
I'm not new to Linux or KDE, but I think that the configuration of mail accounts is somewhat confusing as well (at least in KDE 2.1 where I last did it). Select Settings -> Configure KMail (or something similar, as I'm translating from swedish) and configure your email account under "Network". There are some more problems with Hotmail as Hotmail doesn't follow the POP3 standard. A solution to this problem is using gotmail (http://freshmeat.net/projects/gotmail/). I haven't used it myself, so I c...
