invoke-rc.d and /etc/init.d/kdm
I just noticed that when I try the command 'invoke-rc.d kdm start', it does nothing (just silently exits). However, running '/etc/init.d/kdm start' works just fine, as does 'invoke-rc.d --force kdm start'. Could someone look into that and see what the problem is? (I don't know if it's a problem in invoke-rc.d itself or in the rc script; it used to work fine before.) Thanks! -- Furrfu! r a k k o at c h a r t e r dot n e t

I've looked into this extensively while building a Linux From Scratch box and decided it would not help. To take advantage of it, first you need to build objprelink Then you need to modify the QT sources to call prelinking during the compile. Then you have to re-compile ALL of KDE to take advantage of what will amount to NO speed improvements at all, since QT and KDE for Debian are allready compiled with a newer version of GCC. You would be looking at upto a week, on your hardware for nothing. On the other hand, installing more memory and choosing a window manager that didn't try to use excesive amounts of memory would yield much better results. Cheers, John Gay

koncd?
I think this has been asked before, but I don't think I saw a response. Why is Koncd, now an official part of KDE3, not in the experimental KDE3 debs?? Are there some specific dependencies missing?? On the same note, has anyone managed to install Koncd on Debian?? I haven't had a go at it yet, but integration with the file manager for a cd burning program seems to me to be a great idea. B. ___
mirror of kde.geniussystems.net
hi! yesterday i mirrored the files from above site... the i386-debs are aptable from here: deb ftp://wh9.tu-dresden.de/kde3 debian/ ppc-debs should be available here: deb ftp://wh9.tu-dresden.de/kde3 debian-ppc/ it would be fine, if anybody installs a rsync on kde.geniussystems.net to ease the mirroring... -- MfG, Christian Welzel (Sektionsvorsitzender und Admin AG DSN Gerokstrasse) GPG-Key: http://www.wh9.tu-dresden.de/~gawain/key.asc Fingerprint: 4F50 19BF 3346 36A6 CFA9 DBDC C268 6D24 70A1 AD15

Possibly coincidental with the updating to qt-3.0.5x which broke kstyles? It happened to me after compiling and installing kernel 2.4.19 ;) I rebooted and no more styles. "Huh!", I thought, what does a kernel have to do with styles in KDE! ;) Anyway, it will be fixed with a new kdelibs compiled against new qt. (soon to be released). all the best, Robert_L
