I managed to successfully install KDE2 over an installation of Mandrake 7.0.
Whenever I got a message of unsatisfied dependencies when trying to install
the KDE2 RPMs, I looked up the files and packages up at rpmfind.net and then
downloaded the latest Mandrake cooker versions.

Hi I currently have mandrake 7.1 and I tried to install helix code. Its
works fine till i get to the packages list, it says that it can not retreive
packages.xml.
When I look in the console window,the install program is looking for the
file under caldera folder. I have no idea why but it does.

When I installed LM7.1, I chose to install X11 R3.3.6 (Hey it
worked and 4.0 was still new). Some of the KDE2 packages have
lib dependencies in X11 R4.01.
Before I bugger up my X installation, I want to solicit advice on
upgrading from 3.3.6 to 4.01 using rpm.
What is the best way to go
After installing KDE2 onto LM7.1, I find that switchdesk no longer
offers KDE as an option, even though the switchdesk-kde rpm is
still installed.
Any ideas how to restore KDE as a working option?
TIA

What's the 'trick' to getting a user dir to work in apache?
I keep getting 'forbidden' no matter what I try.
I've tried to set the user dir at 755, grp=users
the public htm dir is 755 and the index file is 644.
What do you have to do to a default 7.1 install to make ~user work?
Do you have an index.html page in the directory you have defined as the
user dir?

Mike,
You could check your processes and grep for httpd or you can try to locate
the httpd.conf file...if it is version 7.1 then it is 1.3.12...soemthing
and there would also be a /home/httpd/html dir and that is a good sign
that it's there...chances are though if you just did a fresh install
I think you're asking on the wrong list. Try the "expert" list.
Probably most of the folks reading here do not even understand
the first of your questions! (I speak for myself, of coourse.)

Hi,
I'm new to Linux but I cut my teeth on SVR4 so
the ATA100 channel on the A7V is reported in windows as a SCSI device.
It has to load its own BIOS at boot time in order to function and I do
not know if the linux kernel can successfully talk with an ATA100 BIOS
yet. My won't boot if I move HD1 to the ATA100 controller which is a

I don't know what the problem is then. I used it to to install Helix on my
7.1 system.
One thing you might try is to choose a differet site and mirror to download
from.
I can not remember which it is now but unless I downloaded the installation
program fron the 2nd site listed then I got an error
I don't know about other unices but in Linux that is the way
Library stuff works. You usually have one actual file

silly to have version links I agree as libGL.so will

Is your system freezing or is the command just not doing anything?
Sometimes you won't see the errors that you are getting unless you started
DrakeConf from a xterm session. Try opening a Xterm session and start your
DrakConf. If you are getting any errors you should see them show up on the

Thanks for your answer. I am going to have to get really brave and try what you say.
Bravery is required because I have no clue what "fix X" entails, sigh. I'll be fully
