I agree! KRUISER is a real nice piece of work. Only three minor nits bother me
though...
1 - Try as I may, I have not found a way to compile the damn thing from source.
Version 0.40 is the most recent and I can't get it to detect libkimgio.so to
save my life. The author knows about the problem, even offers a fix for it...
but it's a no go.
I did find an RPM of 0.40 that I could twist into installing on eDesktop
2.40... :')
2 - Like all the previous versions, the bitmaps on the toolbar buttons are all
screwed up. I though this was fixed? ;')
3 - one very glaring bug can be found in the preferences, under SMB. Be CERTAIN
you select the correct samba version on that dialog, so kruiser can interface
with smbmount that resides on the client. Running SAMBA 2.2.0a here and
selecting anything other than 2.06 will cause KDE to lockup dead. It's not a
software crash, it's smbmount trying to process an incorrect call from kruiser.
if you called kruiser from the desktop via a link... KDE will be locked into a
totally dead state... Becareful. Why kruiser can't query smbmount to detect the
version level is... stupid.
That said, KRUISER 0.40 is the ticket if you need a nice looking samba shares
browser to keep your ex-windows users relatively happy.
Thank you, for the reminder Matt.
