Right now I'm only worried about my kmailrc file, otherwise no problem from scratch. It's no sweat to bk the mail file. Curtis On Saturday 07 July 2001 17:50, ethhoack ethandphi exbeess wrote:
suse updates routines always sucked. don't upgrade if you're not ready to reinstall the new from scratch and import your data from a backup you made on some different disk or partition.

Get the latest nVidia drivers from www.nvidia.com and install them.
The problem with nVidia cards is NOT SuSE's fault but nVidias, due to their closed-source fsck-the-community ( we are the phonecompany attitude ).
Anyone running kdm from KDE 2.1.1 will want to fix that nasty problem with Nvidias, which, to be fair, is partly Nvidia's fault and partly SuSE's. There's a conflict with the package pam_devperm, which you can resolve either by removing that package or by removing the directory /var/lib/devperm. (There may be better solutions, but these work.)
Without that fix, you can't switch to a virtual terminal with Ctl-Alt-Fn after the first login, nor can you get to text mode after logging out.
Pass the word!!!!

This has been fixed in KDE2.2beta1 -- no more weirdness with nVidia when you run KDM :)
