Getting rid of start-up applets manually?

Getting rid of start-up applets manually?

Post by Vid » Mon, 25 Feb 2002 09:46:47



I have a an applet that upon start-up just freezes.  I can't seem to get
rid of it from the start-up.  Is there a place I can get rid of it in the
.kde directory?  I've tried erasing .kde/share/config/kmixrc (which is the
applet that is not working) but it still tries to load when I restart.

BTW- I am using kde2.

kmix is not working? Uh, seems your soundsystem is misconfigured, hmm?
Anyway. You can edit the programs and applets KDE2 loads on startup by
changing ~/.kde2/share/config/ksmserverrc -- or ~/kde/... if you are using
RedHat or stuff like that.

Well, I had to change the kde sound server setting from "auto-detect" to
"OSS" to get almost any sound to work.  Xmms, Xine, Realplayer, system
sounds and game sounds all work.  KDE Media Player doesn't work.

Ok, I editing the kmix applet out of ksmserverrc and that stopped it from
coming up... thanks!  I still can't load the mixer but at least all my
sound works.

If I look at the rc file for kmix, I can see that it specifies "cirrus
logic" when I don't have a cirrus logic, but a soundblaster PCI128.  I
can't find where to change this setting.  I guess I could change it
manually in the rc file but I wouldn't know how to specify the SB128.

1. !!Getting rid of auto start programs at start/Dialing up freeserve!!

is there a way to get rid of those nasty startup proggies as soon as you log
in...i think its the redhathat help browser, and midnight commander that
start first...
also how do i dialup to freeserve...i found a diaup program in the
menu's...i set that up but i get errors connecting...in windoze the diamond
56k modem is on com3, but i tried that for linux and it doesnt appear to
agree with me?
how can i tell what port its on...
there is a modem in the dialup bit..when i click delete, then close it, it
magically re-appears again..is there a way to reconfigure the settings i
chose when it first detected the modem?
or could someone tell me the steps to setting up an internet connection..the
only thing i think i will need is the DNS of freeserve..i have my login info
and telephone number already

thanx for listening to my ramblings, but i cant find any info in the help
screens.
