Kylix problems

Michae1 · 08-03-2003, 02:37 AM

gday all,

recently installed kylix open edition, the installation was fine. But when i load the program it wont display. It loads then flashes somthing on the screen, then quickly dissapears. I am currently using slackware 9.0.

any help would be great!

Michael,

Borland should have sent you an email with an attachment called reg92.txt or something like that. Put it in your home directory. Also, many folks find that installing/running in root is the only way they can get Kylix to run properly.

Here is site with some unofficial Kylix patches.

hey, I have the same problem! In the console mode,
I found the following error message:
LC_ALL is set to C : cant start Kylix.

What the hell is LC_ALL ?
And the INSTALL file says that LC_ALL must be set
to something other than C or POSIX. How do i do that ?
export LC_ALL=en does not help

So I'm not the only one

same problem here, quick flash and that's it ... and I have tried that registration file all over the place ...
I installed kylix as root, then put the installation file in /root ... no luck ... /home ... no luck, directory of kylix: no luck...

very odd ...

okay, update on the situation ...
I've been screwing around with some settings, and so far I found you have to edit /etc/profile.d/lang.sh
you have to comment the following

export LANG=C

and add

export LANG=en_US
(for example)

for me it's
export LANG=nl_BE@euro

the @euro part shouldn't be necessary for en_US, though I haven't tried this ... and I only tried it in GNOME (now also on fluxbox) ...

hope it helps!
