KDE Bootup sound for Windows

Quoted Original von Anonymous What is a windows sound format? And the KDE sounds are WAV files. They're probably converted to ogg by now. You'd need to convert them to .wav or another "standard" windows format to use as a windows startup sound.

What do you use to store passwords?

You might also be interested in using the password management in MozillaFirebird for websites. For "other" passwords, I'd suggest using a plain text file, potentially encrypted (as per tom) if your memory fails you.

3d dwelling and house planner

Have you tried a google/linux search, SourceForge, or Freshmeat? After preforming some fairly basic, precursory searches I found several CAD projects...

IMAP vs. POP

Perhaps the easiest solution is to use Yahoo with the SourceForge project YahooPOPs. I've been using it with Mozilla Thunderbird for quite some time and find it fairly useful.

knoppix user can't use windows modem

Chances are you are using a winmodem. These modems require software (typically proprietary, copyrighted, etc) for full functionality. In order to use such a modem under linux, you'll need to google/linux for it, but make sure to check if your modem is supported. Knoppix may autoconfigure a lot of hardware, but they'd have to sacrifice other packages for winmodem support.

Anyone get shockwave to work with Konqueror?

Quoted Original von Wayne I am just very new to this and I can't even fugger out [sic] how to get shockwave. I have down loaded it and done what is says but where do I fine the command line that they talk about? I am using kde 2.2.2 and Mozilla 0.9.8 Any help would be great as I am only new to this whole linux type thing. Thanks Wayne.

IRC Client

Quoted Original von cmbofh I'd try something else... gaim may not be the best choice for just an IRC client, but I've found it to be fairly useful. It's been the most active project on SourceForge, for ... well, as long as I can remember.

Browser Choice?

Quoted Original von cmbofh That's the way it works here. You can configure it that way: Settings -> Configure konqueror -> Behavior -> Checkbox "Open links in new tab instead of new window" In that menu you can also choose if new tabs are activated or opened in the background. Yeah, but Mozilla Firebird, especially with the appropriate extensions, yields fine grain control. You can stipulate by type of link (eg bookmark, history, address bar, etc), and what to do with it (eg new window/tab, new...

Dashed borders in Konqueror

CSS stipulates that borders appear as rendered per browser. What this means is that while you can control the width of the border, KDE gets to decide how it'll appear in Konqueror, given that width. If you really want to change the width of the dashes, you'd have to edit the Konqueror code.

Who here loves Tux Racer ?

Quoted Original von tuxnet Did you know that you can actully play TuxRacer on Windows too. One of my friends played it here at my place and ordered his own copy because it actully plays on Windows. (The lamer doesn't have Linux) :wink: Yeah, but the FPS suffers greatly (even with nearly everything disabled) -- especially if you have an integrated video card, as TuxRacer doesn't really support the full capabilities of such cards. Presumably it'd run better under nix on the same system. Though, t...
