If you download the truetype.tar.gz and unpack it to /usr/lib/X11/fonts
it will create a subdir truetype, then you can add that to your
Xftconfig or $HOME/.xftconfig and XF86Config-4. Then use monotype.com as
the fixed width font. Has worked fine for me.

Try something like:

or better build/install kde yourself to /usr/local/kde2.x, then just
KDEDIR=/usr/local/kde2.x
and all of you other kde programs will work fine.

You'll end up with :

There is a wrapper script so any calls to auto programs invoke the

If you still have X3.3.x, without imwheel I beleive you have to
explicitly set resources for all/most apps. I never got anything besides
netscape to scroll with X3.x.x and never ran KDE at all under X3.x.x.

Then use 100's of symlinks? Or do you think more fine-grained detail?

both files should have come installed with either konsole or konqueror
or kdebase itself. (ie /usr/share/doc/{kdebase,konsole,konqueror})
The important thing to remember, font servers play 0 role in this, it is
all controlled by /etc/X11/XftConfig and ~/.xftconfig, as far as AA
fonts go.

That along with the above error, implies you did not configure it for

in /etc/X11/XF86Config{-4}.
I don't recall you mentioning if this is X3.3.xx or X4.x.x?

kde should
actually be more stable than the backports for potato. So... if you are
already running libc6 from unstable, maybe you could just point at sid
for your kde debs as well?
Gordon Sadler
On a related note, to those interested in this topic...
I've seen some question if/where .xftconfig and /etc/X11/Xftconfig is
documented. If you have xlibs-dev installed it's Xft(3x).

Seeing as I track both kde-devel and debian-kde, this might interest
quite a few debainers as well.
Ivan, maybe you could add this URI to ... kdelibs3/README.Debian? or
maybe seeing as how konsole seems to be a major culprit, make a new
konsole/README.Debian with this URI at least as a where to lo
l unconditionally include kvi_frame.h. That MAY lead to other
problems, but this is a problem with kvirc, not Ivan or KDE or Debian...
2. kwintv, I downloaded as well, sorry didn't spend the time here. Could
be a very similar problem. Suggest you look at the source.

d qt2.2.4 with mismatched kdelibs kdebase.
kdelibs were local builds from very recent, while kdebase was from
official Debian sid.
Most likely it was something I messed with in the build. I reverted
back to 'official' debs from sid, all working just great with qt2.2.4.
My mistake.

oper environment set prior to build. As far as patching the
source goes, I haven't tried myself, but if it continues to give you
problems I suggest you attempt to build it without patching first.
If that works then debian/rules clean, patch, debian/rules binary

Apt will not upgrade packages that have new dependencies if you don't
have those dependents already installed.
To fix try this:
apt-get install kdelibs3-dev
That will get kdelibs3 and kdelibs3-dev and the new dependent.
Follow u

to get an idea, of course man dpkg explains it as well.
Multiple packages containing same files has been noted as a packaging
bug, so you shouldn't need --force-overwrite normally, but it allows
you to get around the problem for now.

Ivan this might be a bug, or might not -)
Under gnome, if I added a package or removed one, the Debian menus
would update right away, under WM only desktops as well.
Currently under KDE my Debian menus seem 'frozen' I have even
run update-menus manually. Packages that I have removed and/or

Ivan or others,
I do not have a full KDE setup here, I was trying it out
before it was added to Debian and I had various problems
with the 2.0 etc... debs at that time.
However, I have noticed that most programs seem to run
much smoother as far as g
