Sensation!: "Freemind" on Mepis...

[Lordshooter]

Hello.

I got "Freemind" running, after giving in the command "su /usr/freemind/freemind.sh", but shortly after, it then disappeared.

Before that, I downloaded and installed freemind-0.9.0~beta9.

Then I had to download tree java folders with files:

librelaxng-datatype-java,

libcommons-lang-java, and

libcommons-codec-java.

(libforms-java has a fix, and I did not install it yet.)


Now I only get the error message:

"Sorry KDE Pannl,

KDEInit could not launch 'su/usr/freemind/freemind.sh'.:
Could not find 'su/usr/freemind/freemind.sh' executable."


- Kann anybody help???

Thank you.

You seem to be missing the space between su and the rest of the command. These are two distinct commands and should be delimited by a space.

Hello bigtomrodney,

Thank you so much, for your reply.

This is how I give in the command. With the space:

su /usr/freemind/freemind.sh

Hope to hear from you again.

P.S.: Some great videos to watch, on blip.tv (Internet).
For example "Gardenfork", or "Furnitologie".

I can't believe I missed this the first time around. You don't use su but rather sudo and in fact if it is a graphical application you should use kdesu instead.

Thanks, bigtom

your suggestions resulted in error messages.

Nevertheless, a few hours later, I was looking into "office", and to my surprise it showed a "FreeMind"-icon.

Each time I click on the icon from the panel menue, it procuces another icon on the panel bar.

Anyway, I have "FreeMind" now, and it is working nicely. This mindmapping application was added automatically to my office applications. It wasn't there before: a few days ago.

Something else:
I lost my "KDE-panel/all menus , applications, etc.", which used to pop up on my desktop.
- How can I get it back?

Thank you.
