RE: [newbie] KDE 2.1 Beta 1

2000-12-18 Thread Francisco Alcaraz Ariza

After know the problems every users has with KDE21, I am using the 2.01
version (from sourceforge in a special rpms for Mandrake 7.2)  that works
well in Linux. I think it will be better wait, because the changes in KDE
from 2.0 have been very few and the inestability seems to be very high.
I had problems with the KDE 2.0 in the Mandrake 7.2, but the 2.01 is very
stable, just  few applications give problems.

Asunto: [newbie] KDE 2.1 Beta 1


Has anyone tried KDE 2.1 Beta 1? I have been using a CVS version made about
a
month ago (i.e. a month after the official KDE2 release) and I recently
upgraded to KDE 2.1 Beta 1. I have found that when in Beta 1's Konqueror I
cannot access the configuration settings (Settings - Configure...). When I
click on it, nothing happens at all. Also, when I open Kcontrol, there
nothing to select along the left side of the window where the menu should
be,
so I cannot change any settings. I didn't have these problems with the CVS
version I had before, which I figured would be less developed. I guess it's
because they changed something in Beta 1, and my old CVS version still had
mostly 2.0 code.

Does anyone have the same problem?

2.01 would be much more stable than 2.1 simply because 2.1 is currently in 
beta and 2.01 is a 2.0 bugfix release. The main reason why I'm using 2.1 Beta 
1 is that I was directed to use a CVS version by Mandrakesoft since 2.0 was 
too unstable for me. This was about a month ago, before 2.01 was released, 
but this is a CVS of 2.1, not 2.01. That means that I've gotten used to some 
of the newer features of 2.1 (like the new bookmark system), so I can't go to 
2.01 (which would almost be a downgrade). Oh well, I guess I'll have to wait 
till next month for the 2.1 release, assuming all goes according to schedule.
