After few DUs, from the Control Panel has disappeared section "Kanotix", which I often used. Just wonder if that is due to any changes in the distro or something went wrong? Cheers. |

I also have this problem. Plus when I try to use the root password in a graphical box it doesn't recognise the password. I tried changing passwords but it didn't help. So I re-install Kanotix and I try to be careful with what programs I get/update with apt-get. Hopefully this will be fixed soon. I only recently got apt-get to work on this laptop. (A nameserver problem) |

The password problem in KDE is known. A few days earlier it could be fixed with 'apt-get install kdebase' but now it needs a full dist-upgrade because many KDE packages were updated recently. A re-install is definitly not needed for this single problem. |

Thanks. I'm still learning. At least I can now re-instal and set everything up very quickly! It's still quicker and easier than re-installing Windows.  |

If there are all this problems with KDE updating for the moment why is there no warning about that on the news and start site? Normaly there are warnings when dist-upgrade is causing problems. |

I think because very few people are having any problems with kde update. I haven't seen any issues on any install for this update, it's fairly transparent. My script has a warning about the disappearing knxcc-kde, but since that really isn't a serious problem [you can access all functionality using plain knxcc] it's not really necessary to warn, and it will be fixed at some point.
Many times kde update problems are caused by users updating inside of kde, which is not a practice that anyone recommends, so problems deriving from that action are not actually warning type problems, since it's essentially user error. |

Not sure why but I replied to this and the post 'disappeared'.
I agree with h2; I have d-ued every day without any problems othr than knxcc disappearing from the Control Panel. I have yet to be caught out by a d-u as all serious issues are picked up very quickly by Kanotix forum members, particularly devil (the name is obviously a misnomer, angel would be more appropriate!).

I think h2 is right. I didn't upgrade kde in kde as such, but some of the programs I tried to install also updated kde. This could have been my problem. I upgraded kde from outside kde and everything worked fine. I've even got a whole lot of new programs!
Like I said before, I'm still learning. But thats what I like about Linux. It's taken me six months, but now I have a fully functioning Linux laptop with all the functionality of Windows. (I'm still trying to make it Hibernate though)
I enjoy the challene of learning and finding solutions and in Linux there is always an answer out there. |
