Edit: You need superkaramba, for that visit 1:http://kde-look.org/content/show.php?content=27471 Here you get the rpm, for 0.37-RC1 2.http://kde-look.org/content/show.php?content=23258 This is the source package. |
Why don't you use the Gmail Notifier extension in Firefox? It's awesome! Much better than the official Gmail Notifier by Google.

Where did you get KDE 3.4? I tried THAC's RPM and it crashed my system.:cry: |
The KDE mirrors have Mandriva RPMs, check out this thread.
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...hreadid=347652 Dont hesitate to ask me more info, if you need. :) |
I found the RPMs did you download ALL of them or just a subset?
|
I wanted to explore stuff like kdeedu, so i downloaded all of them, if you want to find out what packages you already have, you can do 'rpm -qa | grep kde'.
And you could download those. Why do you ask???!! |
I was trying to download from Carrol U using KBEAR. It wouldn't let me drag over the whole folder. For some reason it would drop the connection. I don't want to sit there and manually download each and every package if I don't need it. What server did you get your's from? I'm sure you just copied the whole folder via an FTP client, right?
|
No, i actually used wget(and left it overnight), but my connection is stable so i had no cause for worries.
Have you tried it with other mirrors? If the same thing happens for all the mirrors, maybe you are not doing something right(??). |
I think the problem is with the mirror, i received an error while trying to connect through Firefox(Error: there are too many connections of your class(25)....... User:Anonymous Permission Denied).......
|
You get that error if you try to make more than 4 connections at once. Using KBear, I could drag and drop single files, but It disconnects when trying to copy the entire folder. I have a very stable connection. I download 2+ GB DVD ISOs in the 600Kb/s range without so much as a blip, so this is unusual for me. I'll do some more looking in to it tonight. Thank you for all of your help, abattoir!

Oh now i realise why i get that error(set max connection in ff to 30 or something :D).
Maybe you could try wget(should have it installed). Just move to the directory you want the files to be downloaded into(through CLI ofcourse!). And do Code:
wget {path to the mirror}/* An example of simple command line magic. :) |
Cool. I'll try it when I get home tonight. wget is new to me. I've read Harley Hahn's guide to Unix, but I'm beginning to think I might need an offline, hard copy Linux reference for the simple things. Thanks!
