Hey, I recently was reading a thread about menu changes not being saved
but I'm afraid that I have a different problem, Mandrake doesn't seem to
be saving some of my hardware settings. When I booted into it today, my
network didn't work. I had to go into the Control Center and run the
wizard again, and then everything was fine. Then my sound didn't work
again. When trying to get into harddrake to fix this, I kept getting an
error that the program was quitting unexpectedly every time I started
it. I fixed this by logging into KDE as root (bad, I know) and then
harddrake worked and I was able to get the sound working. Next, I logged
back in as my regular user and all was good. It'd be nice if I did not
have to repeat this process every time I boot into Linux. How do I get
it to save my settings? Thanks.
You might try going into the configure your desktop Or what was the old KDE
control center and choosing ComponentsSession Manager and check on Restore
Manually Saved session then log out and log back in again. If it saved your
settings then go back to the same place and check it back to Restore
previous session and it should always come back as you set it up. It sounds
like it is remembering what you had set when you logged on before making
changes. Otherwise you may have to go to the config files for the various
things like sound and make changes directly to them. HTH
