Hello,
I did not try KDE3 on OpenSuse, but I guess that automounting/unmouting
should work out ot the box, since it's using HAL. If not, I think it's a
bug for KDE3.
I also think it's KDE3 bug. Well, automounting works, but when I
try to unmount the drive in
media:/ I get error claiming that I have no permissions to do so.
About network management, I don't think we have
anything usable yet in TDE.
On my side, I'm using gnome's nm-applet for this purpose.
I also use
nm-applet. The problem is that when I ran it under KDE3 it seemed crippled, as it was
unable to record new connections (both user and system wide connections) and send any
commands to
NetworkManager. Coping configuration files from old installation to appropriate dir in
/etc made
these conectios available, but still this was not what I expected :/ Anyway, if nm-applet
works
in TDE and allows to add and control connections without any problem then I'm happy.
If you can wait some more days, we are about to
release TDE 3.5.13.1, an
updated 3.5.13 version, which will be available for OpenSuse 12.2 and
Ubuntu Precise, among others.
Promise? If so, then I can wait, though I was
desperate to get my system up and running till the
end of week. I am still considering Debian, though I'm a bit reluctant to go with
Squeeze since
it will soon become oldstable.
So you can try it and post feedback.
Oh believe
me, you will hear me complaining.... :)
BTW. What are these problems in LTS 12.04 that you mentioned Tim? I have some friends
using this
Ubuntu and i didn't hear any complaints from them.
