    I haven't posted here in a long time, but I was just stopping by and read this thread (I have used Mac4Lin before), and I just wanted to give you a "thumbs up" for spending the time and effort to not...

    Sounds good--I have moved to openSuse (my avatar is old), and I am looking forward to 11.0.

    You might want to check out dansguardian. I assume that it can be set up to work on a single computer.

    Unfortunately, sometimes Linux does not have as many "niche" programs as other platforms,...

    Well, it took me all of five seconds to find it, in OpenSuse.

    I don't really care if you use KDE4 or not; I just thought I would help you out a little, and maybe slow down your rant about a...

    I don't know of the button you speak of, but in KDE4, OpenSuse, I go to the same place to see hidden files in Konqueror that I did in KDE 3.x--View, then Show Hidden Files.

    In OpenSUSE, your plugins are probably in /usr/lib/browser-plugins. That's where mine are, anyway.

    Just an idea, but this seems to indicate that konqueror is using the gnu version of java. Is it? If so, I would retry with Sun's version.

    As bwkaz mentioned, I would guess you are getting those errors because updatedb is in /sbin, and you are trying to run it as a regular user.
