KDE on Windows XP

Good news, team started migration of original applications for platform. Concerning windows.kde.org, users of XP/2000/2003 can easily install famous apps like Konqueror, Kate and others on their machines, via KDE-installer.

If some of the applications don’t work from the beginning, just add KDEDIRS and Path in your Control Panel, as it’s described in the manual.

So far, I found only one minor thing: I couldn’t manage applications via Konqueror, however it needs some googling.

In general, lots of positive feelings for this great move of , because some of the apps in can’t be compared with scanty alternatives.

Soviet architecture: MSU building

Tuesday, November 27th, 2007

There are a lot stereotypes about Soviet periods of (and of course those republics as a part of Soviet Union), but what’s really hilarious and comes to a standstill when you see the architecture of that non-existent country.

Just check out some photos of 50’s and present time of Moscow State University, which was built in 1954. I’ve resized some of them via Flickr account, however you can find out more pictures here. The author tries to compare the composition of MSU environment planned in 50’s with chaotic ensemble of New York skyscrapers. You can use Google Translator to check the post.

Add remove problem in Win XP

Thursday, November 8th, 2007

Finally, I’ve got time to fix this bug.

After upgrading my Internet Explorer 6 up to the seventh version, Add/Remove window in Control Panel wasn’t loading. After a bit of googling the problem was solved:

1.win+r, load “regedit32″
2.Go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
3. -> Microsoft -> -> Uninstall
4.Find “ie7″ folder and in the right side menu look for for “Uninstall string” row
5.Follow the Uninstall string and extract .exe file which will handle uninstalling IE7.
6.Restart your PC.

After it, everything loads fine now. The only disadvantage - you’ve got your Internet Explorer 6 back :)
