View Full Version : [ubuntu] How to run kde applications under gnome

Hi there!

Background: I found what seems to be a nice application to handle recipes (krecipes), so I installed it from synaptic but I cannot see it anywhere.
After searching the web for answers, I've found that krecipes is a kde application.

Question: Can I run a kde application (krecipes) under gnome? How?

Thank you.

I've had some luck just using apt to install the KDE app, and it will grab the required files, IE KDE. I do recall it being a little buggy though, GUI wise.

The menu structure in KDE is different from gnome, so the program may not have been put in the right place. Press Alt-F2 and type:


krecipes

The program should work as expected. You can add it to Applications-->Accessories, by right-clicking Applications and adding it to the menu.

Thank you for your answers. I'm afraid I cannot make it work yet.

Here's what I did: Since nothing happenned after pressing Alt-F2, I went to Applications-->Accessories, opened the terminal and typed krecipes there. Krecipes started, asked me some basic questions and then it shutted itself down.
I was not able to add it to Applications-->Accessories as suggested by cariboo907, since I cannot see it.
Now, when I go back to the terminal and type krecipes, the application does not start and the terminal shows the following:

Any suggestions? :confused:

Update on 12 July 09: I still cannot make it work. Since the previous post I have tried to fix the problem by uninstalling krecipes and installing it again from ther terminal (the first time I had installed it from Synaptic), but nothing changed.
I also tried to create a launcher from gnome's bar, and nothing (I do not have krecipes among the programmes to be launched). My knowledge is very limited and I really don't know what else I could try. :sad:

I guess it must be a pretty simple thing, but the lack of further feedback from the forum keeps me puzzled :confused:.

Is there anybody out there? Thanks!

Did you try "gourmet" for gnome? It's a recipe manager too, not sure if it has the features you want but it's worth a try. For what it's worth I get the same problem trying to run krecipe you could try deleting the config (which is at $HOME/.kde/share/config/krecipesrc) and using a mysql database but not only would that be a pain, it probably wouldn't fix the problem.

Thanks, leef for your suggestion. I have installed "gourmet" and I'm trying it. Unfortunately, although it seems to be a nice recipe manager, apparently it provides just a few of the features you could find in krecipes. The ones I was looking for are not there :(

I'm probably wrong, but I thought I had read several times in the forum that running kde applications under gnome was a very simple task. I guess in the future I should not be so naive when reading the forum :(

Anyway, it would be great if someone could recommend another good recipe manager or (I'm not giving up) a way to run krecipes under gnome.

Thanks!

I get this message when I tried to run krecipes:-

Could not find 'drkonqi' executable.
KCrash cannot reach kdeinit, launching directly.

This is the terminal notice:-
38f840c565b6ed5dad60d56-xKCrash: Application 'krecipes' crashing...

How can I fix this?
