smb4k

I used to run smb4k under KDE. Now I run windowmaker and I would like to run smb4k. The problem is it does not run under Windowmaker at all.

Is there a fix for this? Or is there a better samba client/mounting program that automatically logs back on when a Windows machine reboots. I am in a small network with 10 or so Windows machines and sharing is difficult, particularly when a Windows machine restarts when I have it mounted.

I know that mount -t smbfs -o user..... works well, until a Windows machine gets restarted. I have already tried that. However, smb4k was solid for me and the share I needed was always there, regardless of Windows reboots.

Thanks for your help

If you try and run it from a terminal what error message do you get?

OK here it is:

Code:

$ smb4k
QPixmap: Cannot create a QPixmap when no GUI is being used
QPixmap: Cannot create a QPixmap when no GUI is being used
QPixmap: Cannot create a QPixmap when no GUI is being used
QPixmap: Cannot create a QPixmap when no GUI is being used
kbuildsycoca running...
which: no super in (/usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/usr/games:/home/<user>/bin)

I have googled these error msgs. Maybe someone out there knows a better place to look or has seen this before. I think some library is not being loaded, because it works fine under KDE.

Thanks for looking at this!
