is kbear already a part of the standard-installation!? i did not yet find a search.
it would be great using konqueror for ftp also. but how do i see the ftp-folder? if i type in the adress with ftp:// instead of http:// nothing happens, tried this.

Kbear is included with your install disks, use YaST to install it.
yast cannot find kbear - and, btw, it shows two harddisks; / with 3,96gb and /windows/c with 3,03 gb. the last one should have been deleted during installation, which was not the case. but where is the rest of my 40gb harddisk!? do i need to format the rest and where do i find it?
is there another way than burning a new iso? this seems inefficient to me...
but big thanks anyway - i'll download it if there is no other way of installing this small program or nobody can tell me how to use konqueror as ftp client...
i tried this with ftp://home.arcor.de/bergenbilder/ and it won't work. with the slash as last sign, it says that it cannot open the folder, without slash it says, the file does not exist. tomorrow i can have a try with some accounts at tripod and the one at oli.xelia.net also. (i am just passing by and very tired...)
That's really strange that you can't see the folder on your ftp server. Konqueror works great with my FTP, but Kbear works great also because it allows you to create site profiles and such. I'm also running 9.1 Personal, and Kbear was installed by default.
Try typing kbear at in a terminal. That should start it.
Can you post a screenshot of your partition configuration? Like this:
You may also want to add the SuSE ftp site to your installation sources by using starting YaST and following these directions.
In YaST:
1. In the software group, choose 'Change Source of Installation'
2. Click 'Add', 'FTP'
3. Enter these values -
Server Name: ftp.suse.com
Directory on Server: pub/suse/i386/9.1/
4. Click Ok
You may also want to add the following RPM server:
Server Name: packman.iu-bremen.de
Directory on Server: suse/9.1
The only drawback is that starting the 'Install and Remove Software' module will now have to query these FTP sites, so it will be a little slower. Hope this helps, as I'm a real noobie too and I didn't know these things as of two days ago
