Author Topic: [SOLVED]PCLOS-2010.12 KDE -finding keyboard shortcut app-gparted?  (Read 439 times)

I am new to PCLOS and KDE.  Still use Luscious Lamb Chops Gnome. Not accustomed to KDE. I have gone throught the KDE manual but can't find answers to these questions.  I have looked for these apps, tools and utilities

Where do I find Keyboard Shortcuts?  Nothing related listed in the menu.

When I installed PCLOS from the LIVE CD I seem to recall a partition mounting utility.  Now, I can't seem to find it.  If it is not present in the final install, what is the name of it so I can download it?

Is there a standard gparted? parted, kparted, or libparted.  There is a partition manager, but I much prefer the standard look.  If there is a standard parted like app, I can't locate it.

Thanks in advance for your assistance.

For shortcuts try:

Configure Your Desktop >> Common Appearance & Behaviour  >> Shortcuts & Gestures

For gparted try:

Open synaptic > reload > search for gparted - install

Fantastic on the custom shortcuts. Worked like a charm. Thanks.

I got the synaptic to update, and downloaded gparted. Thanks.

Hi ubume2 - very welcome.

No parted, kparted,  in synaptic package manager.

I've just done another check and can see gparted - parted and kpartx

If you still can't see them switch (if you are not already using it) to the heanet.ie repo as that lists them all. Do a Reload of course.

Good luck

The best way to save face is keep the bottom half shut.
