At least on FreeBSD 5, the problems with libthr aren't just limited to KDE (which really doesn't use threads all that much - Qt has limited support for threads, KDE has even less and actual multithreaded KDE programs are few and far between) - running the base-system BIND as a local DNS cache for more than an hour or so with a global mapping from libpthread to libthr active is usually enough to expose the problem (i.e. name resolution will stop working). -- ,_, | Michael Nottebrock | [EMAIL PROTECTED] (/^ ^\) | FreeBSD - The Power to Serve | http://www.freebsd.org \u/ | K Desktop Environment on FreeBSD | http://freebsd.kde.org
