Re: Re: Kylix 3 on Debian

I apologize for not saying that I HAVE been able to install it. I have 
the professional version.  It installs OK but what I should have said is 
that it won't install in a useable state.

Tell me more about your experience with the 'open source' version. I 
have seen that it is much smaller that the 'pro' version.  Mine takes 
about 400 mb to install.  If the open source version runs and is 
reasonably functional, I'll run it instead.

This is what my version is doing to me.  I can't start either the Delphi 
or C++ function in KDE.  I can, however, start and run the Delphi 
version in an Xterm window (it works great).  I can start the C++ 
function in an Xterm window but it takes a very long time and produces 
about 6 errors stating access violations on various 'packages'.  When 
the C++ function finally starts, I find that the minute I try to create 
something in the work space it throws a segmentation fault and 
disappears from the screen. It is essentially unusable.

I am very impressed with the features that this product seems to have 
but something probably very simple is keeping it from running 
successfully. I can't believe that Borland will sell much of this stuff 
if it will only run on 3 versions of Linux and only on 1 release of each 
of those versions.

I hope you can save me.
