Unhappy Mandrake Control Center Is Missing


hi, i have a really big problem now. i just don't have mandrake control center. in other forum i heard that it was because i was making something with gtk, and i didn't (btw. i use kde). i have searched on net, and more people have the same problem. i don't have any links to mcc in /home/alzen/.kde/...; i have updated my menu in menudrake but with no effect. i just don't have mcc in system, no mcc file in /bin and /usr/bin. today without any ideas i reinstalled my mdk 10, i mean that i have upgraded 10.0 to 10.0, no effect. please tell me what to do, i don't want to delete system and install everything again cuz i have system configured in my way and i am happy with it, only missing mcc. hope someone will know what to do.

Open a terminal and try (as root):
Code:
urpmi mcc
The Mandrake Control Center will be installed. If any error occur, post here and someone will help you.

The mandrake control centre isn't called that in your files.
You'll need to look for drakconf in your /usr/sbin directory.
If you added a link to your menu and told it to point to mcc I doubt it'd start.
Open a console. su to root and then type: mcc see if it opens then.

the correct name for MCC is drakconf, so in terminal as root do urpmi drakconf.

thanks guys, i was thinking about drakconf cuz i asked a friend to mail me his mcc file from /usr/bin, and in that file we can see a "drakconf" name. but i didn't think about simple urpmi drakconf command ; thx again, once again i got an answer at linuxquestions.org when i couldn't get it anywhere else.
