[Cooker] Mime type problem in KDE Konqueror
I use Mathematica and I wanted to add a file type for mathematica files to my installation of Konqueror (all Mathematica files end in .nb). I did this by right clicking on one of my Mathematica files and using the resulting dialog box to set the default application, extension and Icon. everything sort of works with the folowing slightly inconvenient exceptions: 1) Non mathematica files are also displayed in Konqueror with the mathematica icon. Examples have the following names: /home/msh/msh-shadow/Notes/RunningKDE1andKDE2Together /home/msh/msh-shadow/Notes/MostRecentInstructionsOnAddingWindowManagers /etc/auto.master /etc/bashrc /etc/crontab and many others. 2) If I have more than one application listed in the Application Preference Order (e.g. nedit) that is the application that always gets used to open the file, never Mathematica. Are there any workarounds to these problems (besides waiting for KDE 2.0 to be released)?

[Cooker] kdmrc file keeps getting corrupted
I would like to try out the KDE 2.0 Beta so I downloaded and installed the following files from the cooker site: kde1-compat-1.1.2-4mdk.i586.rpm kdeaddutils-1.93-4mdk.i586.rpm kdeadmin-1.93-4mdk.i586.rpm kdebase-1.93-9mdk.i586.rpm kdegames-1.93-3mdk.i586.rpm kdegraphics-1.93-3mdk.i586.rpm kdelibs-1.93-4mdk.i586.rpm kdelibs-sound-1.93-4mdk.i586.rpm kdemultimedia-1.93-3mdk.i586.rpm kdenetwork-1.93-3mdk.i586.rpm kdepim-1.93-3mdk.i586.rpm kdesupport-1.93-7mdk.i586.rpm kdetoys-1.93-2mdk.i586.rpm kdeutils-1.93-2mdk.i586.rpm kdoc-1.93-2mdk.noarch.rpm koffice-1.93-7mdk.i586.rpm qt2-2.2-0.7mdk.i586.rpm qt2-devel-2.2-0.7mdk.i586.rpm I also use a graphical X login screen. Prior to installation I had the following choices for window managers: kde,Gnome,WindowMaker,Enlightenment,Sawmill,BlackBox,AfterStep,Fvwm2,Icewm,Fvwm1,failsafe,default. These appear in the usual popup menu with one choice per line. After installing the RPMs listed above (using rpm --nodeps --force -ivh *.rpm) and rebooting I get a login screen which appears to have only one choice of window manager which is listed on one long line as: kde;Gnome;WindowMaker;Enlightenment;Sawmill;BlackBox;AfterStep;Fvwm2;Icewm;Fvwm1;failsafe;default when I login using this choice I get a default window manager (I don'tknow what its name is, but its not kde). I can fix this problem by loging in a s root and editing the /usr/share/config/kdmrc file and changing the line SessionTypes=kde;Gnome;WindowMaker;Enlightenment;Sawmill;BlackBox;AfterStep;Fvwm2;Icewm;Fvwm1;failsafe;default to SessionTypes=kde,Gnome,WindowMaker,Enlightenment,Sawmill,BlackBox,AfterStep,Fvwm2,Icewm,Fvwm1,failsafe,default. After making this change, the login window shows the usual popup menu with one choice of window manager per line and everything works fine. Here's my problem if I reboot the machine the login window is goofed up again until I re-edit the kdmrc file. How do I fix this problem?
