Hi , I just compiled kde 3.4.1 with konstruct.
News flash, Konstruct does not do configuration!!
Basicly everything is fine except few things : I used prefix=/opt/kde-3.4.1 After the install i edited 2 files : 1. .bashrc - added custom PATH where replace /opt/kde3 with /opt/kde-3.4.1
Normally, that would be in: .bash_profile, but wouldn't you want to put this in: "profile" or a 'profile.d' script?
added KDEDIRS=/opt/kde-3.4.1
That would probably be KDEDIR if you only have one. :-)
2. .xinitrc - added startkde
This doesn't do anything unless you are starting KDE from a console with: "startx".
The problem is with the menu entries and kcontrol modules. There are no kcontrol modules and many kmenu entries are missing .
The problem is that KDE is not finding your: xdg directory the related 'desktop' files. You can add two environment variables: XDG_CONFIG_DIRS=$KDEDIR/etc/xdg XDG_DATA_DIRS=$KDEDIR/share export XDG_CONFIG_DIRS XDG_DATA_DIRS Exactly where to put this is a good question. If all you run is KDE then you can put it in "profile" or a 'profile.d' script. -- JRT ___________________________________________________ .
