Thanks for the answer. I'd prefer to try and keep the config files if poss. Evolution 1.0 runs but is not too stable, forgets what mail is in the system, galeon is now unstable. abiword , well ! it thinks it 0.9.6.1, but that would not compile as glib was'nt in, urpmi says glib is install , rpm -q says not.
not a stable situation any more !, but if it was any winrubbish it would have alreay gone past the stage of reinstall bg richard On Thu, 2002-01-10 at 09:18, Oscar wrote: > El mié, 09-01-2002 a las 22:05, richard escribió: > > Hi all, gotta problem, > > in trying to upgrade abiword, to a version which dos'nt crash when more than > > 4 pages in a doc, I have really srcrewed gnome.. > > > > Galeon, nice browser, wont start, evolution 1.0 lost all mail and crashes, > > icons gone from desktop.. > > > > Is there a way of downloading a safe verion of gnome and automatically > > forfilling any dependancies as required and overwrinting files that have got > > corrupted... > > I think but not sure that rpm is not 100% functional, KDE is still > > functional; luckily > > > > > > TIA > > BG ,,,grovel grovel grovel > > > > Richard > > > > ---- > > > > > Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? > > Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com > > Gnome is working great here. > What version of LM do you have? > try exiting gnome, removing ~/.gnome/session and restart. > > or if you are more radical (eliminates all config files!
