Konqueror kept refusing to modify add or delete bookmarks. I gave up and obliterated the ~/.kde folder, after all there was not much to lose in the freshly installed system. My problem remains though as to how to get my previous bookmarks back. I can't believe how complicated this turned out to be. Not quite sure what to do now, but will report back if I find some solution. Thanks a lot for your help so far, -- Seb -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
