Well I tried all the above:
DrakConf didn't function, I had to be root before it showed up in my
desktop.
Read somewhere that it might not be installed, went to the RPMS checker
and found
no mention of it there. Thought I scan the CD's it won't let me do that
now
either nothing in mnt. So with the advent of "7.0 features" I'm back to
newbie
status. I also subscribed to that mailing list. I did get X functional
again,
and can acess Nutscrape here so I can reach you guys. Went to
Mandrake's site
watched the pretty demo on DrakConf, but no info on how to get there.
It may
do what I'm wanting to do (kill off some of the many processes, and
dameans).
I just want a functional desktop, no network (other than ISP dialup)
which I
now do through KPPP. I like the StarOffice now I read that it may be
endagered
by NutScrape, can't surf very well with KFM because many sites don't
like the
way it handles cookies. Kmail was neat but couldn't use more than one
POP3
account. Is there any help out there?? I know "go back to Windoze if
it's this
tough".
But I liked the penguin!
