I removed .kde/ .qt/ and all files in /root/tmp and /tmp but haven't tried
reinstalling kdebase as you recommended. Will try that after office hours.

May I ask use another question? I don't know if it attributed to the KDE
corruption. I'm seeing lots Samba sessions opened on my box, memory is taken
up quickly. But no swap is used. Is there a way I can troubleshoot this
further. I'm using the free command. When I do /etc/rc.d/init.d/smb restart,
I see smb fails to stop but can start. Please help.

Regards,
Norman
