These includes are necessary to COMPILE older versions of kde. Here the pb is that moc and liqt.so are also included in the qt-devel-1.44 devel. Even in qt2-devel.

This means that it outputs your display on port 2 instead of port 1. The only fix for this I have heard so far is to install the binary files from the Matrox web site. Do you install, but do not test X. Complete everything else. Boot up into failsafe mode, copy the files over as directed and then try starting X. You should be all set. I found that setting up my G450 was very easy after downloading the updated drivers. I even have DRI support which makes watching DVDs and such much much nicer. Good luck.

[Cooker] Cups
Has read the doc about CUPS and did an install of CUPS as said. (doc Cups and CUPS News (2)) After the install I couldn't print anything, kwrite, kedit, staroffice51, etc... Only the test page of course. So after many try's I decided to UNINSTALL all of CUPS. Now, nothing changed; can no more print at all. When tryng to do a printer-install with printerdrake he's looking for the cups-drivers and stops. Can't install the cups-drivers without installing cups. Do any one have this pb ?
