Re: [expert] KDE 2.1 and jdk
Sun has gone through and had all the KDE 2.1 mirrors remove the JDK rpm (because they're "protecting" themselves from something or other). You can download and install the JDK from the following URL... http://java.sun.com/products/jdk/1.2/download-linux.html After installing it, go into Konqueror's configuration and put the following in for the location of java on the Java tab: /usr/jdk1.2.2/bin/java Without the RPM install though, you either have to mess with some provides file, or you install the KDE rpm with --nodeps as stated in the jdk text file. I've got it installed and it works great. But I still wish the packager would release an updated KDE rpm without the jdk dep.

Re: [expert] KDE 2.1 and jdk
Folks, due to a license issue I needed to move off of the Mandrake mirrors. But, you will find the package on any kde mirror site in the beta2 Mandrake directory. Try ftp.kde.org My appologies. -Chris On Monday 05 February 2001 01:40, Milnes Terry SSgt 52LSS/LGLOE wrote: Tried looking for it all over the ftp site to no avail. It might just be the site I tried.

Not your fault Sun is riddled full of jacka**es who don't see the open spreading of what they're giving away as a good thing.

Re: [expert] KDE 2.1 and jdk
If you download jdk-1_2_2_007-linux-i386.tar.gz from java.sun.com, you'll find that untar/gz'ing them extracts the files into a directory named jdk1.2.2, not jdk-sun1.2.2. Though I suppose there's nothing to stop you from renaming the directory since you have to manually tell Konqueror where it is anyway. It is an unfortunate truth that Sun is still blatantly snubbing Linux. Even the README's in the tarball refer you only to win32 and Solaris installation instructions. I sincerely hope that the KDE team can come up with a way to use the Java environment with the tools IBM has provided, since they are enthusiastic in their Linux support.

RE: [expert] KDE 2.1 and jdk
I d/l'ed j2sdk-1_3_0-linux.rpm.bin from java.sun.com. It installed in /usr/java/jdk-1.3.0. Now here comes the problem. I followed Chris Molnar's directions in the README file in the kde2.1Beta2 directory in the Mandrake-devel/unsupported directory. I had to force everything and nodeps some of the rpms. On the kdebase rpm it gave me an error of cpio:unlink at /usr/share/kdm/user/pics (or something very similar) and then stopped at that point. Let me backtrack a little. Ever since I did a live update from Mandrake 7.1 -7.2 Konqueror has not worked. Previously I would get a SIGSEGV 11 fault and have to use gmc as my file manager. Now when I try to start Konqueror it gives a fault of Bad inode/directory and then does nothing. Is there a way to fix this? Do I have to remove all the KDE rpms and start fresh? I would just like to get this working. I really liked Konqueror when I had it running on one of my other machines back in the Kleopatra beta version.

Re: [expert] KDE 2.1 and jdk
The only package that should have required doing the --nodeps to it was kdebase. Everything else should have been updatable. The problem may be more deeply rooted in the prior updates made.
