how can i install koffice 1.6.3 on slackware 13.1, i tried koffice 2.2 believing that it already had the "save as m$" option, but it doesnt have that option yet.so i tried to install the old good 1.6.3, installed the kde3libs, qt3 and other packages, but when i tried to compile koffice it said it needed qt < 4 so... is there a way to actually install it?
View 4 Repliesdislike the package groupings that come with KDE, i.e to get one network App I have to install all of them...I can live with this since I just install a near minimum KDE and add my own packages... but OpenOffice 3.2.0 is drawing horribly, even if i redraw everything through Qt4.The menu icons disappear and such...I want to use Koffice but it doesn't appear to work without KDEPIM but I do not want any of the KDE PIM related apps.What is the minimum dependencies for Koffice?
View 7 Replies View RelatedI want to upgrade Koffice to 2.1.1. When I do a search at software. [URL]...search, I see koffice2-2.1.1 available at KDE:43/openSUSE_11.2 and KDE:Backports/openSUSE_11.2.
zypper info kdebase4 shows Version: 4.3.1. OpenSUSE is 11.2. What's different about those 2 repositories? They both appear to be the same. I'd like to get updates for KOffice. I'm using it for project management.
i'm using Ubuntu 9.10. I just installed koffice (Version 1.x) which includes kformula.
Then i realized that koffice 2.x is already available which seems to be called "koffice-kde4" in the repositories... But koffice-kde4 doesn't have kformula included - where is it?
how i could install the complete koffice 2?
On what repository may I find this? I found the old 1.63s but KO2 has been out for quite a while now.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI recently installed Slackware Linux 13.1 , and my Wireless is down. I've only installed 3 Linux disto's on my main laptop (Ubuntu 9.10 , 10.04 , and Crunchbang Linux 9.04 , just had Crunchbang), and they all had the same problem. In all three , I was able to enable Windows Wireless drivers and every thing worked. Now , I'm assuming I have to the same ting in Slackware? Sorry , but I have no idea what my wireless card is. But I know that my laptop is a Dell Insprion E1705. One last thing , I did ifconfig and that wlan0 is my Wi-Fi interface. I typed ifconfig wlan0 up to see if that was the problem. After I did that , I got and error message. Then I typed ifconfig wlan0 down to see if it was down and it made wlan0 down. I tried bringing it up again , but I got an error saying it couldn't find the device specified. Also , how do I install XFCE? I really don't like KDE for some reason and would like to install XFCE. I chose XFCE over GNOME (my favorite) because I want to try something new.

I'm trying to install Puppy 525 on my Slackware 13.37 PC as a dual-boot using LILO. Puppy is living, all on it's own, in sda6, a 6 GiB partition. It got there by using the Puppy Universal Installer and selecting a 'Full' install, not a 'Frugal' install. I cannot find 'LILO' type instructions, only 'GRUB' type instructions.
Has anyone succeeded in doing a hard drive install of Puppy with the LILO boot loader?
Edit: I'll probably regret it, but I used Puppy's GRUB installer.
want to know what is the best way to update system, install soft like an openoffice and so?
swaret?
slapt-get?
another one?
thanks.
I'm interested in seeing what others are doing w.r.t. fonts in a standard Slack install. The 2 main apps I use are Firefox and Thunderbird and both look fairly poor out of the box. Previously I've used a combination of gtk-qt-engine and gnome-appearance-properties ( with a gsb install ) but this doesn't always do the 'right thing'.
View 2 Replies View RelatedThe system requirements for ESET NOD32 Antivirus 4 for Linux are: Red Hat, Ubuntu, Debian, SUSE, Fedora, Mandriva, and most RPM and DEB Linux desktop distributions. Can this be installed on Slackware? I tried the download and install. Its says that after the install you need to reboot and an 'activate' application will start - it didn't. I used ESET in my prior Windows life and it was great so I thought, why not in my linux life!

1. Upgrade your kernel to 2.6.34
2. Get and install the driver:
Code:
git clone git://anongit.freedesktop.org/git/nouveau/xf86-video-nouveau/
cd xf86-video-nouveau
./autogen.sh
make
[code]....
PS. There is no source tarball yet for this driver.If you want to upgrade:
Code:

git fetch
git rebase origin

What is the best way to install perl cpan modules in slackware?
i know that you can use 'cpan' and say 'install date::calc' but there is a perl-date-calc slackbuild on sbo. so which is the better way and why?
(Background: my wireless worked fine for a long time using wicd-1.6.2.1 and then all networks became hidden. The wicd website said there was a bug in 1.6.2.1 and to upgrade.) I obtained wicd-1.7.0.tar.bz2 from sourceforge.net. Slackware man pages recommend "installpkg <name>". I did "removepkg wicd..." and then install. Installpkg said it could not install it because it did not end in .tgz,.tbz,.tlz, or .txz. I changed the name to wicd-1.7.0.tbz(assuming that was equivalent) and did installpkg again. That gave "Verifying..., Installing..., Warning: package has not been created with 'makepkg'. Package wicd-1.7.0.tbz installed."
There is no entry for it in the Kickoff Application Launcher. There is an entry for it in /var/log/packages. There is in /etc/rc.d./rc.wicd a script marked executable. Can anyone see what got lost?
I wish to do a fresh install of Slackware without KDE. I could use my Slackware 13.1 DVD but I thought, why not give -current at try? Is there a -current ISO or must I install 13.1, without KDE, and then upgrade to -current? Or, is it possible to remove 'all things KDE' and then upgrade to -current?

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have an old AMD K-6 350 MHz laptop with 96 MB of RAM and a 4 GB internal hard drive. I've used it for years with Slackware-I did have Slackware 11 on it with a 2.4.33 kernel before I did a fresh install of Slackware 13 and wiped the drive. I don't have the CPU power for KDE but it works nicely with the Fluxbox desktop. The problem that I'm finding now is that I don't have enough disk space even by not installing KDE-it takes 3.7 GB which is all I have and then I don't have any space left for a user.
So, I figure I'll start over and re-install Slackware 13. Which package directories don't I need just for Fluxbox, PCMCIA wireless networking, USB support and CLI mp3 support (I like mplayer which is now included)? After the install I want to install wicd from the extra directory.
