This probably has nothing to do with your problem, but it is a good way to scramble KDE.
I made the stupid mistake of running an apt-get upgrade from a "Root Console - Konsole" session within KDE. This effectively prevented the upgrade of all KDE components in use at the time, while upgrading others. When KDE was restarted, it died of myriad complaints. Running the upgrade again from the _real_ root console solved the problem. -- Carl Brown Whitefield, NH USA -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
