gnutu, tuxmath, childsplay, matchbox-keyboard - Crash. I told Education section has problems. more there.

I like the Grub image with the progress bar. Previously OM Lx had it.

Tired to install VMware Workstation 12.5 Player for Linux 64-bit. installed. but VMware Player crash.

Anyone else tried?

I haven’t investigated at kde.org yet. Same thing happened in openSUSE when updated to KApps 17.04 so this is probably an upstream feature “for our own good”… You’ll probably find you can’t use a lot of KDE apps like kwrite, kate, ect. as well.

mandian · May 10, 2017, 10:06pm

I think it’s a security feature. You may try with

sudo dolphin

ben79 · May 11, 2017, 12:40am

I’m sure that’s what the persons who made the decision think. Some of us got in to Linux because it gave us the choice of how to manage our own systems. In that vein I’m sure there are ways to circumvent but as a QA person I’m going to live with it and work around it. Think about it though. For anyone with the knowledge to do things as root/su exactly what will we not continue doing as root/su with different tools. Nothing, not a damn thing. So it eludes me what has actually been fixed. I have seen zero problems in this, KDE, Fedora, or openSUSE forums caused by someone using Dolphin as root. Not saying it hasn’t happened but it certainly is not a common problem.

Aside: ben79 rummaging around asking “where did I put those anti-rant pills”…

To be specific:

$ sudo dolphin
[sudo] password for ben79:
Executing Dolphin as root is not possible.

IMO something not broken is now fixed. Congratulations!

ben79 · May 11, 2017, 1:44am

pujithadimuthu thanks for reporting. What got devede and bleachbit fixed was mandian filing bug reports. So to get these other issues fixed I, you, or someone needs to file some bug reports. I’d suggest doing 2 or 3 and then when those are fixed or are otherwise RESOLVED file another 2 or 3. That’s just respecting our limited resources and our developers time. A few of these may need to be removed instead of fixed but that is a resolution where warranted. (For instance packages that are no longer maintained).

That being said it is important that you have reported this and that we eventually get these applications either fixed or in a few cases removed. Obviously the more people that pitch in and help the sooner accomplished.

ben79 · May 11, 2017, 1:45am

pujithadimuthu again thanks for reporting and ditto the above post.

rugyada · May 11, 2017, 5:21am

I hope it is a bug.
When I’m root I am root and can do whatsoever I want.
If it’s not a bug, well… stop believing users are stupid.
Also, if they are they surely will find tons of ways to destroy their
systems.

rugyada · May 11, 2017, 10:13am

I hoped in vain
kde.org 17.04.0 changelog

Disallow executing Dolphin as root on Linux

+1

Postedit
Actually OffTopic, I would really need a workaround for this problem as I have to edit files and make changes while locally testing some stuff so…
I know I can run as root pcman-fm for example but dolphin is dolphin and I’m used to use it only.
Any help, please?

mandian · May 11, 2017, 5:25pm

Have you already tried with pkexec dolphin?

mandian · May 11, 2017, 5:28pm

You can patch the code, of course. ;).
To be more seriously I see people on other forum complaint against this. Maybe KDE developers will change it in the future.

However there is nothing you can do in dolphin you can’t do in terminal.

VMM is working… Has any one checked Hypervisors… KVM is not available. My guess. I think quem and libvirt is available. I did not check. I am busy…

As I know KVM supports Linux and Windows OS and lot of people use KVM.

rugyada · May 12, 2017, 12:05am

No. Will try soon and report. TY.

pujithadimuthu · May 13, 2017, 2:25am

XEN hypervisor is available in openmandriva-drakconf (MCC) install or remove programs but does not work. openmandriva-drakconf (MCC) services can not start / start services manually. This Service issue had in omlx 3.0 tooo.

Up to now:

VirtualBox is OK
Virtual Machine Manager is OK.

But Virtual Machine Manager hypervisors has problems.
KVM - Not available
XEN - Installed Not working
qemu - Not checked
libvirt - not working

VMware Player not working

Couple of months ago I had this issue with network connection. My ADSL has to restart after login to connect to internet.
last two weeks I did not got that problem now again started. I told this to Mr. Efrem couple of moths ago. He told he will give a try.

rugyada · May 13, 2017, 3:58pm

FWIW I read that openSUSE patched the package now

I learn that this “feature” has been introduced for security reasons.

I tried to install adobe reader. Most people use it. As I know adobe stooped the Linux adobe reader.
Is there any alternative software for Adobe reader. Which has the same functionality? PDFedit and Okular is available for free. But it is not the same as adobe reader. Master PDF Editor and Qoppa PDF Studio 11 is available for linux. but not free.

I got AdbeRdr9.5.5-1_i486linux_enu.rpm. When I tried to install it.

Last year I have seen a comment somewhere telling that Adobe Acrobat DC works with POL (Play on Linux). Maybe worth giving a try?
