KNewsticker & KMIX
Hi ! I installed KDE3.1 from debian-unstable... I used the knewsticker- and kmix-kicker-applet in the previos release from kde.org - and I like them :-) But in the actual release I'm not able to find any packages for these applet. Are these applets no longer ingredients of KDE ? Regards Marc Schoechlin
comfortable way to install kde ?
Hi ! I'm using debian-testing, and I have currently installed KDE 3.0.3. Everytime I would to upgrade KDE, I use a way which seems to be a little bit ugly: I deinstall kdelibs with "apt-get remove kdelibs". After that I remove the remaining kde-packages. Then I comment out every debian-release which contains kde, and i include the kde.org-mirror in sources-list. I think this is a little bit unergonomic. Is there a better way (a single command) to reach this ? Why is there now howto available which explains this ? Regards Marc Schoechlin
Re: kde not starting as normal user
Hi again, I still have problems in starting kde as a normal user - and i have no idea what's wrong I tried the following: I started XFree only with a xterminal - whithout any windowmanager - if i now enter "startkde" to the xterminal - kde should be started. This works for the root user - but not for noraml users - they get the fllowing messages: In the xterminal: -- bash-2.05a$ startkde Aborting. bind() failed: : Permission denied Aborting. bind() failed: : Permission denied -- As a window without a frame: (translated in english - i'm sorry :-)) -- A Problem in setting up the communication beetween the kde-processes appeared. The Message of the System was: Could not read network connection list. /home/marc/-DCOPserver_bart_:0 Please ensure that the programme "dcopserver" is running ! -- If i start dcopserver manually on the commandline and try it again - the the window complaining about the dcopserver does not appear anymore - but then i get an other error-message: -- bash-2.05a$ dcopserver DCOPServer up and running. bash-2.05a$ startkde Aborting. bind() failed: : Permission denied KSMServer: can't open /tmp/ksocket-marc/KSMserver-:0: Permission denied KSMServer: Aborting. connect() failed: : No such file or directory -- What can I do ? Help me :-)) Regards Ma -- Marc Schöchlin wrote: Hello folks, I have a very ugly problem with kde - I'm searching this bug for a long time (7-10 Days)- but I was not able to solve the problem.

If i startup kde i can see for a short period of time the dotted x-screen, after that i saw my kde2 backgroundcolor, then the procedure returns back to console or GDM. The kde splashscreen is not shown The courious thing is that starting kde works very well for the root-user, and starting other desktops (i.e. gnome) as normal user works also. Therefore I suppose that this is not a xfree-problem - although there are some messages in the Xfree-Log. I'm not sure since when the probblem occures - three things were happen: - My girlfriend powers off my box without making a shutdown *grr* - I played with the euro-key-support (iso8859-15) What can I do ?

kdelibs
Hi ! I read your message at [EMAIL PROTECTED] that you compiled the kdelibs package by your own for xinerama . I'm using xinerama too - and i would like to use this for the actual kde2.2.2 - kdelibs2.2.2-5 ! How can I get the sources and compiling them by my own ? I `m also able to put this packages to my homepage - for other users ! Regards Marc Schoechlin
