Toying with the idea...

Odd that they aren't in the menu... What version of mozilla is it? This is the Sarge installer we're talking about, right?

Yup, the same isntaller you linked me to.

Ok, Mozilla on my system is also not on the menu under KDE, I'm currently using version 1.6-7 of Mozilla and kdelibs4 3.2.3-2. Mozilla Firefox on the other hand, IS on the KDE menu (under Mozilla Firefox). The version of that installed is 0.8-12. The way Debian does it's package numbering scheme is pretty simple. You have <Version of program>-<version of package> So Firefox 0.8-12 is actually Firefox version 0.8 and it's the 12 time the package has been changed since 0.8-1.

And I have to apologize to you.... the proper package name for firefox is mozilla-firefox...

'apt-get install mozilla-firefox' WILL work...

And with Gimp, just update it to the newest, hopefully it'll put it in the menu then. I find it odd that it isn't in there now... but who knows... I've had things in windows where I install it and it doesn't create a shortcut anywhere either (even on the Program Files menu.)

For an up-to-date menu you might want to install "menu", which delivers menu-updating functions for both Gnome and KDE (or any other menu using GUI).

apt-get install menu

[Kooldino]

Cool, I'll have to give that a shot.

I recall reading somewhere on the Debian Mailing lists that they were thinking deprecating the 'menu' program, but I don't know what came from it. I had thought that 'menu' was installed by default, but maybe not...

Appletalk: On startup it said that the service is running. I don't want it. How do I disable it?

Anyone?

I think it would be "chkconfig appletalk off," but I'd have to check.

[Kooldino]

linuxbox:/home/kooldino# find / -name chkconfig
linuxbox:/home/kooldino#

I haven't seen appletalk boot up on mine for a very long time. Though maybe that's because I use the 2.6.8 kernel and it doesn't have it enabled. What kernel are you using?

I'll give that a go.

[Kooldino]

Yep, that did it.

Now for the million dollar question: why?

did it contain appletalk and some other protocols or JUST appletalk?

[albatorsk]

Why what?

What is "it"? Netatalk? That's the userspace programs for Appletalk. It contains the file sharing server and client, and also a server and client for printer sharing. The actual appletalk protocol is a kernel module that you can rmmod if it's not compiled directly into your kernel.

[Kooldino]

Ahh, ok.
