Time to Cut Their Losses?

According to blogs by KDE4 developers at http://planetkde.org/, most of that is because it's not finished yet. The panel will be configurable. Even the current look/feel isn't necessarily final. So there's still hope you might like 4.0.0. This is what they get for calling it a "release candidate" when it's really more of a beta. Everybody will think it represents how the final 4.0.0 is going to be. Poor project planning/management.

RE: Gnome ruined my KDE file associations!

Quoted Originally posted by bram85 You should have backed up your stuff in the first place Yep. Quoted Originally posted by bram85 I think the contents in ~/.local/share are messed up. Undo them would be a bit difficult, but you could (re)move the folder so you have to start from scratch again. There was nothing important there, so I tried logging out of KDE and nuking it (~/.local). No change.

Gnome ruined my KDE file associations!

I temporarily switched to gdm and tried Gnome. I started KDE from gdm once by mistake. Later when I switched back to kdm and KDE, I noticed that my KDE menu had been recategoried and some file types no longer have an associated app! Is there a way to undo this?

kicker reappears during logout

When I logout, after the screen goes blank there is a several second delay and then kicker reappears! After a few more seconds with just kicker on the screen, Xorg finally quits. Is it a bug? Is there anything I can do about it? It seems to be slowing down the logout process. KDE 3.4.0 Xorg 6.8.2 kernel 2.6.11-gentoo-r6

How to test/try out Qt 4 Preview 2

My entire Gentoo Linux system, including my 2.6.8.1 kernel, qt 3.3.3, KDE 3.3.0, and everything else was all compiled using gcc 3.4.1. A current standard "stable" install of Gentoo would compile everything with gcc 3.3.4. Is that a bad thing?

Woah, there are people who still use 2.95?!?! Isn't that version ancient/obsolete?

How to test/try out Qt 4 Preview 2

I'm using an ~x86 install of Gentoo Linux. 1. Is Qt 4 Preview 2 backwards compatible with Qt 3.x stuff, like KDE 3.3.0? 2. What versions of gcc is it known to compile with? (I'm using 3.4.1, but I'll revert to 3.3.4 if I have to)

Do you like the new KDE 3.2?

Faster and all around better than 3.1 - I love it.

[kopete] c++ compiler error while installing kopete

That file does look a little big, even for gcc... hmm. Try using RedHat's built in package management/download software first.

cant find these utilities

If you can still start 3.1, right click the K menu, click Menu Editor, and copy info about the menu items you want into a text file. Then edit your 3.2 K menu, and insert the same menu items. The same can be done for desktop icons, etc.

[kopete] c++ compiler error while installing kopete

That configure script might expect the compiler's filename to be "gcc". If that gamma compiler is compatible with gcc, you could try creating a symlink named gcc pointing to the gamma executable. Or you could modify the kopete makefile to use gamma instead. You might as well just install gcc - you're probably going to have to install it sooner or later anyway - most linux software is designed to compile with it.

KDE 3.2 style menu to KDE 3.1 style

Wow, I can't believe that option isn't in the control panel - how could they leave it out?

Small fonts some softwares

Check out the GTK theme switcher. It sets the theme and font that GTK apps use when they're run outside of Gnome. You distro may have a package for it, the package name in Gentoo portage is "gtk-theme-switch"

Problems Installing nVidia Drivers

Try this:[code:1]cd /usr/src rm linux ln -s (the directory of the kernel you want the nvidia module installed for) linux[/code:1] That works for me whenever I upgrade my kernel (on Gentoo Linux) and have to reinstall the nvidia module.
