    I tried doing the shortcut, but I do not know what to input to the fields.

    "Command, Panel Embedding, Run in Terminal"

    The program I want to start right after login is aMSN messenger. I execute it by gonig into "Run command" > aMSN or by konsole and typing aMSN. I am not sure what to do.

    Chris,

    you got the right idea, you are just going to need to do a little research on where the program is at...

    Chances are, if you can run the program from a Run Command [prompt, you might just be able to create the "link to application" without having to enter the complete path for it.

    First, try to create a "link to application" on your desktop, in the command box you have got the execute tab, just enter what you enter in the "Run Command" - if it works, simply cut the desktop shortcut and paste it to the /home/"user"/.kde/Autostart/ location in a Konqueror window...

    If the above doesn't start your program, just by using the program name, you will want to search for the program on your hard drive install... Once you find the complete path and program name, simply enter that in the "execute tab -> command" box for the "link to application"

    I hope this helps,
    Ms. Cuddles

    NTFS Read-Write with INSERT 50 MB Live CD (Knoppix-based)

    Try the Knoppix-based Live CD (credit-card size 50 MB) with a full range of security, antivirus, recovery, NTFS read-write, plus all the stuff to repair and recover Linux journaling file systems as wall as MSDOS FAT12, FAT13, FAT32, and of course NTFS. Download from http://sourceforge.net/projects/insert/ and read about it at http://www.insert.cd/ . Good antivirus scanning, very usable desktop, tiny sized credit-card CD, fast download and easy burn.

    Entering mounted NTFS in GUI-launched apps

    Hi folks,

    I had a Win XP crash and am loving Knoppix and how I can see all of my precious files in the root shell window after mounting the NTFS partition without a hitch. My problem, that I'm hoping some kind person can help with, is that I can't enter the mounted directory in applications launched from the GUI, which I want to do to get a good survey of my files, directory sizes, etc., and to get some CD-burning going on. Permissions show as having read access, but this seems to be something else. If I click on the partition from the desktop, for instance, I get "Cannot enter /mnt/win32" but if I check properties, permissions show read access for user, group, and others. If I open a picture with gimp or an mp3 with audacity from the shell prompt, I can subsequently navigate the files in the open dialog box, but if I launch the app from the GUI, I cannot enter it as if I don't have permission. Any ideas?

    Grateful in advance,
    Foobius
