I mainly run freecell and klondike here, but haven't seen the problem, and you say it happens on freecell, so I should have if I had the problem. FWIW, here's my output (gentoo, for anyone wondering) for those packages (plus libkdegames): [ebuild R ] kde-base/kdelibs-4.7.1 USE="3dnow alsa bindist bzip2 fam handbook jpeg2k lzma mmx openexr opengl policykit spell sse sse2 ssl udev udisks -acl (-altivec) (-aqua) -debug -doc (-kdeenablefinal) -kerberos -nls -semantic-desktop -test -upnp -upower -zeroconf" 0 kB [ebuild R ] kde-base/libkdegames-4.7.1 USE="(-aqua) -debug (-kdeenablefinal)" 0 kB [ebuild R ] kde-base/kpat-4.7.1 USE="handbook (-aqua) -debug (-kdeenablefinal)" 0 kB (Obviously I still have the sources cached, thus explaining the 0 kB sizes...) Looks like you have a few more flags turned on than I do, on kdelibs, but nothing leaps out as related to kpat... except for nls, perhaps. I assume you're fully update-deep-newused, revdep-rebuilt, and depcleaned, right? The next things I'd suspect would be something in your user or hardware config, probably either widget-style (Oxygen, here), display/opengl (Radeon hd4650 w/ the freedomware drivers, kms mode, classic as gallium is broken, here), or corrupted kpatrc related. Have you tried moving your $KDEHOME (normally ~/.kde/) out of the way (while not in kde of course), to go all defaults and see if it's a user config issue? Or what about simply removing $KDEHOME/share/config/ kpatrc , to see if it's a corrupted kpatrc problem. (Obviously, trying those in the reverse order makes more sense, kpatrc first. =:^) -- Duncan - List replies preferred. No HTML msgs.
