Thanks for the reply.
What solved the problem for you was probably the upgrade to kde 3.3, cause i'm with 3.2.1+ yast online updates, and it doesn't work!
I'm trying not to update to 3.3.x cause i need this system to be rock stable, and I'm not sure how stable would an unofficial update be. Could you share your experience on this? Does it work as 3.2.1 official from suse?

There have been several methods of upgrading KDE discussed on the list. There also seems to have been varying degrees of success with each method. I used Yast and added the following ftp installation source (use whatever mirror): mirror.mcs.anl.gov /pub/suse/i386/supplementary/KDE/update_for_9.1/yast-source I then moved this source to the top of the list. Next, I used "install / remove software" switching from search mode to package groups and browsing to KDE. Each item in blue was marked to be updated. Yast added several more packages which I accepted. This was done on a single client. After a couple of weeks I felt confident enough to load it on the rest of the machines. It is probably important to note that this was done on my home network. Production servers here haven't made it to SuSE yet, much less 9.1. I'm currently typing this sitting in front of a Fedora client that goes through a RedHat server to get to a SuSE server so I can remote access my SuSE 9.1 home client. I get confused easily. ;-) HTH, Louis P.S. It should all be SuSE before the end of the year.
