When I see weird behavior of KDE with respect to devices (this happens only very rarely), I do this: - log out/close the KDE session - restart udev - restart dbus (which, among other things, restarts hal) - log in/start KDE again More generally speaking, you can use "checkrestart" from the "debian-goodies" package to find out which services need to be restarted after upgrades or other library-related changes to your system. -- Regards, | http://users.icfo.es/Florian.Kulzer Florian | -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
