Hi Patrick, Hi Randall,

After reading your exchange, I was reminded to open Gnome Control Center to 'spruce up' Evolution & Mozilla under KDE.

I selected it from Utilities->Desktop, it opened fully populated and functional, I set my desired theme and then Quit -- no difficulties at all. I'm still on 9.0 Pro if that means anything.

I'm inclined to think the symptoms I experienced with the Gnome Control Center not launching and with the "xhost +local:" work-around allowing it to run is _not_ normal. I'm running SuSE Pro. 9.1 and, as I indicated in the original post, using the supplementary updates to get the latest KDE (3.3.1, Level "a", whatever that means...).

regards,

- Carl

PS/OT: Is it me, or are a lot of the posters on our SuSE lists a bit 'testy' today?

Today? Randall Schulz
