[Cooker] First Time Wizard won't use BB as default

The First time Wizard will not set BlackBox as the default Window Manager on 
my machine.  Is this a problem more than I myself have seen, or is it just a 
problem with my install?  Any ideas as to how to fix that problem and set 
BlackBox as my default?

Did it create a file called .desktop in your home
directory?  Does it contain:
DESKTOP=blackbox

?  If not, that's what it was supposed to do.  You can
do it manually.

[Cooker] First time wizard (KPersonalizer) work around

2002-07-26 Thread Priest

A few things:

1) installing

The first message you see when installing reads something like: You are 
starting with an alternitave booting method. Please change the disk and 
insert the instalation disk 

I read this and thought I incorrectly numbered the cd-r's, but I didn't, so 
you are told to change disks when booting with the correct disk. The 
instalation disk is also the only disk that gives that warning. Maybe a 
re-wording would be in order there. 

2) creating an account

Maybe some other default icons in userdrake (I know that is a pretty minor 
detail though) 

3) Running KDE (also most important)

The KDE KPersonalizer first time wizard runs every time. It ran every time 
when I was running the first stable release on MDK 8.2, and it runs every 
time in 3.0.2 on beta 1.

The temporary workaround for this is to go into
/home/YOU/.kde3/share/config/kpersonalizerrc

and add the following 2 lines 

[General]
FirstLogin=False

The problem was seen by Matthias Dahlberg and corrected in

I tested for some other languages and that was fine. 
This was up to the translators to test and report problems.

I did most of the Danish translation. 
I dont understand how it can affect the left side, that should always
be displayable. Anyway, what can I do to correct it?

[Cooker] First time wizard

Hi

Mandrake Linux Cooker-i586 20010923 21:42

OK - I tried it out, and I found an explanation that could sell nearly 
anything.

I might have read it in a non observant manner, but I think it would be 
better if the relevant hardware data, was shown to the user prior to 
transmitting it. As it is now, some folks might start guessing what the hell 
you sucked out of the box. Microsoft once asked me if I wanted to register my 
copy ( a pirated one 1995) of MSWord, when I was to download a service pack. 
Scary things when others are waccum cleaning your hard drive. In this form, I 
have to say - never more.

The program ought to be able to get rid of Netscape, after reporting a 
successful transmission. As it is now, it has to be closed manually.

It is a pity that the program is unaware of the keyboard being used when the 
data is transformed to KMail - the 'umlaut' ö (o with two dots) was 
transformed into nothing. I dont know if that is an evaluation.

guran

[Cooker] first time wizard in russian locale

2001-09-20 Thread Borsenkow Andrej

First time wizard is not translated (at least in Russian. Other
languages?). It makes it only marginally useful for us. In any case, it
is very unlikely that anybody in Russia will buy the same Mandrake packs
as are sold in other world. We currently have revived Mandrake Russian
Edition 8.0 (from ALT I guess), but that's not the same and they sell
own packs. I just hope they will continue it (I have not seen there
distro).

I do not immediately suggest removing wizard for us. I hope there are
more Russians listening to this list to say there words.

 I don't know the guy who handles the ru po. But it would be nice to
 have this translation.
 Andrej could you help on this ??
 

If you give me message file I may take a look on weekend (I still more
