My /etc/ld.so.config reads as follows: /usr/local/lib /opt/kde/lib /usr/lib /usr/i486-linux-libc5/lib /usr/X11R6/lib Any ideas? yes - you have to install qt-devel Gael. OK, I did that, I get a LOT further this time, only to arrive at the following: "checking for new KDE libraries to be present... configure: error: we can't find k2url.h. It may be that you have to compile kdelibs with --enable-new-stuff!" -- I did run .configure --enable-new-stuff, only to get the same error message I did reinstall kdelibs just for safe measure - still can't find a k2url.h anywhere on the drive. Hi, this is a follow-up to my original problem, now that I found out quite a bit more information: I did attempt to compile kdelibs with the "--enable-new-stuff" flag. It won't work because it's looking for - upon running ./configure, I get the following error message: "checking if STL implementation is SGI like... no checking if STL implementation is HP like... no configure: error: no known STL type found" SO, upon checking with some folks in #kde on EFnet, I was told I now needed to compile kdesupport - which I downloaded and again attempted to install. I then got the following error message upon running make (configure worked fine): "In file included from /usr/include/sys/socket.h:34, from mimelib/protocol.h:29, from protocol.cpp:36: /usr/include/socketbits.h:231: asm/socket.h: No such file or directory In file included from /usr/include/errnos.h:24, from /usr/include/errno.h:36, from protocol.cpp:44: /usr/include/linux/errno.h:4: asm/errno.h: No such file or directory make[2]: *** [protocol.lo] Error 1" I am now TOTALLY baffled as to how to get this kdenonbeta installed, and how many packages I'll have to compile manually to get there... oh, and my source directory is still installed (2.2.1) as /usr/src/linux. Any ideas? I just want the ktheme manager... ;) From the error messages in the compile, it looks like you don't have some kernel sources installed. The items it's looking for can be provided by one of two packages. Use the kernel-headers package if you don't intend on compiling a custom kernel. Use the kernel-source package if you think you might be interesting in compiling your own kernel at some point. I don't know whether either of these two packages set the symlinks that you'll need, though I'd imagine that kernel-headers probably does. In any case, after installing either of the above packages, use the following commands (as root): cd /usr/include ln -s /usr/src/linux/include/asm-i386 asm ln -s /usr/src/linux/include/linux linux ln -s /usr/src/linux/include/scsi scsi Retry your compile and everything should be peachy.

Steve, OK, it seems my symlink "asm" was invalid... I deleted it a created a new one. The compile for kdelibs went smoothly, but still no luck with kdenonbeta. Would you happen to know which package the file k2url.h is a part of? Mayeb someone can just email it to me as a band-aid fix ;) Thanks, Paul -- +---+ Paul A.

[newbie] Non-KDE apps
Hey All, Ref: Mandrake 5.3 When I start KDE as root and select the K at the bottom of the screen there is a selection that comes up as " Non-KDE apps " that does not appear when a user starts KDE.
