I have installed the kdebase3 and all that is required to run it but i am having trouble launching it with apple's X11. Since I use panther I know its my only choice and I have read the faq but your directions on it are confusing me. THe faq states:
A: Apple X11 doesn't keep track of the Fink environment settings, which means that the Applications menu doesn't have the PATH set correctly to find your Fink applications. The solution is to preface the name of a Fink-installed application with source /sw/bin/init.sh ; For example, if you want to run a Fink-installed GIMP, then put source /sw/bin/init.sh ; gimp in the Command field of your GIMP entry. You can also edit your .xinitrc file (in your user directory) and add: source /sw/bin/init.sh after the first line. I tried searching for the .xinitrc file in the finder and came up empty handed. Also what user directory are you referring to? I would have tried the other way but im not sure where the command field of an installed application would be and what I would use to edit it. Forgive my newbishness and thanx in advance for the help :) ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials Free Linux tutorial presented by Daniel Robbins, President and CEO of GenToo technologies.
