When using checkinstall to make the rpms for XFree 4.2 you need to use the no strip option. (--strip=no) Otherwise should work as advertised. I haven't done KDE 3.01 yet! See the FAQ's on the checkinstall site or checkinstall --help. -- Marianne Taylor _______________________________________________ Linux-users mailing list - http://linux-sxs.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-users Subscribe/Unsubscribe info, Archives,and Digests are located at the above URL.
