[Fink-users] KDE applications in Oroborosx

2002-06-02 Thread William McCallum
Some people have commented on the slowness of KDE. If you want just one or two kde applications and not the whole environment you can invoke them from the command line under Oroborosx. This avoids the problem of slow window redrawing. The startup is still slow, especially the first time you op

Thanks to everyone for their help. Editing the hostconfig file solved my problem. Now, is KDE supposed to be this slow? When running it my processor utilization jumps into the upper 90 percent range, this is on a DP 533 with 512MB RAM. Is this the way KDE is supposed to run, or is it just in t

[Fink-users] emacs21 and cut buffer

2002-06-02 Thread Enrico Franconi
Hi! I used to be very happy in cutting/pasting to/from fink X11 emacs and aqua/carbon applications, thanks to the package autocutsel. Since the new emacs21 came into play, I've lost again the ability to reliably cut and paste; basically it is now a matter of faith :-) Is this known? It is just me

Dear Douglas, If you have libxpg4 installed, that may be the cause of your KDE startup problem. I had the same problem as you, and it was caused by libxpg4 setting a certain environment variable (DYLD_FORCE_FLAT_NAMESPACE, if you really want to know). I don't really need libxpg4, and removing

I am having similar problems. I set the hostname in hostconfig but now get the error msg.: Could not look up internet address for gravenstein. This will prevent GNOME from operating correctly. GNOME then suggests adding gravenstein to /etc/hosts, but this didn't help. I do have a IP address a
