similar to: KDE Versions in CentOS ?

I'm evaluating CentOS 5.4 for our company and one of our requirements is that it must also run on laptops. I've managed to get everything working so far except for wireless networks. The problem here seems to be that CentOS fails to provide a knetworkmanager package, and we're using KDE3 for various reasons. Thus, we're limited to Networkmanager-gnome which works but fails to

Hi All; I ran Linux as my main laptop OS for several years, then I got into a mac shop and bought a macbook. The macbook is ok but it just doesn't cut it per productivity so I've ordered another laptop (a 64bit laptop with 8G of memory expandable to 16G and 2 internal 320G 7200rpm drives) I'll be loading Linux as soon as the machine arrives from Dell. Here's my questions:

Hi All; How do I enable/configure wireless in CentOS 5 ? I cannot find knetworkmanager anywhere.. Do I need to install another repository ? I did enable rpmfusion with no luck Thanks in advance...

Listmates, Woking with compiz 8.2 on kde 4.3 beta 2 on Archlinux, the plasma "kicker" pager widget does not work correctly after compiz 8.2 is started. Before compiz is started you see the 4 small desktop representations stacked 2x2. After you start compiz, the panel only shows a single large pane 'Desktop 1' no matter what desktop you are on. The strange part is that

Hi, I'm currently busy tweaking KDE 4.14 on CentOS 7 to my needs. I want to use it as a base for an enterprise class desktop. In my humble opinion, CentOS' default KDE configuration is not very usable, so I created a default user profile that looks more like what openSUSE looked like a few years back. Here's the little script I'm using to install the various configuration files

Any hope of KMail (and Kontact) coming to CentOS-7? What exactly is the problem? KMail seems to work on other Linux OS's. -- Timothy Murphy gayleard /at/ eircom.net School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin

I've been a RH/Fedora guy since the RH8 days. When Fedora came along, I moved to it, but its been a bit painful beta testing software all the time. I ran Ubuntu for a while, but I found their package management to be difficult... I do a lot of technical work, development and loading and building special stuff. I much prefer RPMs over other methods of package distribution. Presently

Hi I downl;oaded the source distribution of wine 0.9.14 and compiled it as described in the readme file. I now created an rpm with checkinstall.

Hi I recently upgraded to Kubuntu 8.10 with KDE4. Now, the drag & drop ability to wine applications doesn't work anymore. For example: If i drag-and-drop a file from konqueror or dolphin ton winamp/peazip/etc., it opens two files with corrupted names each. Does anyone have the same problems as I? Thxs :-)

hi, i'm trying to use rsync to backup some directories of my box. i.e. i will backup the whole subtree /opt/ except /opt/apache/ and except /opt/kde3. the rest in /opt/ should be copied to my external usb harddisk. but i can't find a way to do this, because apache and kde3 are always included in the backup. here is the rsync-call: rsync --backup --one-file-system \ --delete

Hi all, I thought I understand how include/exclude and their precedences work (I read the user guide about this), but I seem to miss something. I have 2 questions about this, separated by ====== Question 1: -------------- I want to exclude the "hidden" directories except some sub-dirs or files: .mybackup and its files) and the mozilla firefox bookmarks folder and its contents
