[newbie] Right Mouse Button and kde problems
Hello everybody, I have just installed Mandrake 7.1. Using kde when i click on the right button of the mouse on the desktop to add link to a new application of file system device and so on the only option I get is:new folder ( nothing more), this isthe same problem i used to have after installing staroffice with kde integration but this time no star office is installed. Another minor problem is that the kcmclock application seems to be disappeared from the kde control panel. Thanks in advance for your help Ottavia Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com

What works for me is to right-click within any other directory (i.e. AutoStart) and create the new link, and then move it to the desktop.

Re: [newbie] Right Mouse Button and kde problems
Another quick fix is to open your 'home' directory icon from the desktop and then click on 'Desktop'; you should have all the options at that point. I'm curious though, I'm using 7.1 and my $user account does have right click options - root however doesn't. Is that your case also?
