Password discrepancies

2003-06-07 Thread Brian Gonzales
I seem to have different root passwords: 1. If I 'su' at a command line, my root password works fine. 2. If I'm using KDE, I click on a Command Center icon, it prompts for a root password, it works fine. 3. If I'm in Gnome, I do the same and I get a 'bad password' dialog box. I don't recall chang

There was something on /. about this. One of Ximian's teenexecutives stated that stable was too old and something to the effect that sid was too new. Go check it out. I liked Redhat soley because of Ximian's RedCarpet support. Debian still beats it hands down with apt-get...imo. On Sat, 2003-06-0

Accidently uninstalled KDE

2003-07-12 Thread Brian Gonzales
Used apt-get to install a couple of packages the other day, and somehow uninstalled KDE (should've known when the installer asked if I wanted to stop the KDE daemon :). If I apt-get install kde or kde-core or kdebase, it eventually states I need kdelibs, kdelibs-data kdelibs4, all of which I've tr
