Linux for your taste (sorry Naw :D) (14 Viewers)

[Martin]

Can you provide me a sh-files for dummies in simple steps?

I upgraded and it seems everything is working so far

It's easy actually.

1. Download the .sh file
2. In the directory where you put it run ". file.sh" (this reads the file and makes the command osdetect available)
3. Run "osdetect"

I had this one before, it seems you made some improvements to it.

I love it, it's so useful. I wanna make more improvements to it, but it's a lot of work.

I would love to have some way to test the network connection quality, for example. Just having a working connection is really useful information, but having that too would be much better.

Martin, help....I never succeeded in upgrading and now the problems are starting to appear.

All my settings get messed up once I log out or restart the computer. Why is that? and how to fix it?

Not at all, the only thing that I got was something about some packages that are no longer supported and the only thing I could do was click "forward".

you could try creating a new user. presumably everything will work fine there. then move your settings over. ~/.kde and things like that. it's not tremendous fun but..

[JCK]

But why is that?

I will test it anyway.

what you described sounds like some permission problem, files can't be written to or something (?)

What can I do to fix the permissions?

Actually I wonder if ~/.xsession-errors will give you the answer.

That's a lot of errors I'm seeing. All the things that say "No such file or directory", are they supposed to exist, do you use them?

 

[JBF]

Damn you .. I had the same speed only divided by a 100

Thank you cable fixing, they said it's gonna end by April 30th but internet is still damn slow

Dude it's 15KB/S here

Yes but they are supposed to be there, it's weird that they are not found.

 

[JCK]

That's it, I am giving up on upgrading.

Everytime I say it's the last time and everytime I do it again and fail.

I am giving KDE another shot now.
