Re: [newbie] associations lost in KDE: incomprehensible!

I thought that may be some kind of problem related with chmod or chown, i did a chmod -R 755 . in my home directory and a chown -R me:me . It doesnt work and i'm tired of being changing all the time the associations in order to see pdfs with acrobat and .doc with M$ Word... I dont know what is hapenning here Any ideas? Ivo I had this just yesterday, and after mucking around a great deal, I found that after setting the new association with rightclick_on_file Properties Edit File Type (spanner icon) General tab Add whatever in application preference order go to Embedding tab click on show file in separate viewer click apply go back to general tab click apply again (just in case) click OK (and maybe click apply again beforehand.) I've just rebooted this morning, and pdf remained associated with acroread, and nedit remained a second option for .ps btw, its Mdk10.0 and KDE. cheers Andras Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

Re: [newbie] FAT question

When I unmount the thing I can't reformat the drive with a decent file system like ReiserFS, JFS, ext2 or ext3 from be it the MCC or by hand. I can't even re-partition it with FAT32 ? So here it goes : will this FAT32 file system become fragmented over time like any other Windows file system ? If yes, how to defrag it ? Or, will I have to move the FS to another drive back-and-forth in order to defrag ? TIA Kaj Haulrich. Kaj, The following may be interesting to you: I had a USB thumb drive preformatted with FAT32 that was doing weird things under linux. When I deleted files off it, no free space was reclaimed. After filling the disk and erasing it, it still had no space available. So I tried a format under diskdrake: it said unsupported filesystem or something. It had the filesystem as grey, but somehow it was recognised as vfat. I had to delete the filesystem, remove the mountpoint, create a new FAT32 system in the empty space (I still need to be compatible), format it again, and the thing now works like a charm. All in all, I think not all is FAT32 that appears to be so, try giving diskdrake another go. At the same time I had a browse on defrag apps for linux, and the bottom line seemed to be that linux needs defrag as much as it needs antivirus software. Hope this wasn't all useless cheers Andras Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com Join the Club : http://www.mandrakeclub.com
