Re: KDE kppp network dialer



Alan-
I'll assume that you are using RPM's to install KDE.  If so, when you
download the KDE apps RPM it merely unzips a whole bunch of other RPM's
into a directory.  There is information about this in the documentation
that comes with kde (i think the default location is
/usr/doc/KDE-1.1/installation-guide/)  To quote it exactly: "You now have
installed the base KDE-1.1 system. Either proceed to the post-installation
instructions, or optionally install any of the other packages: Collect the
packages you want in a directory, then rpm -Uvh kde*-1.1-*rh*.i386.rpm."
So basically you rpm -uvh the kdeapps rpm and then goto the directory
where it extracted the rpms and run the command listed above.  This worked
on my system...but i could be wrong :/  Hope this helps..
