I've been using SuSE 8.0 and KDE3 and KMail for a year. This morning, I booted after the weekend, got into KDE 3.0.4 with no problems, and then tried to start KMail. After some effort, the system responds with the you've-got-a problem dialog, saying that KMail has failed with signal 11 SIGSEGV.
~ maybe, you recently upgraded 2 kdelib3 packages ?
If 'yes', then go back to the previous kdelib3
Sorry for ignoring anybody... we had a 4-hour e-mail outage, here at the office. Anyway, if I "upgraded 2 kdelib3 packages", I did so without being aware... As I mentioned, my last YOU was 17 days ago, and I've been using KMail and booting in and out of SuSE, relentlessly throughout that time. On this system, I have used only YOU for keeping current, and I didn't install any software (no rpms, and no source packages during that time). So, I don't know when that might have happened. I'll try it regardless. Is there a faster/more direct way than using YaST2 to re-install anything that says "kdelib3" from CD, and then running YOU to update with more current versions? /kevin

Before trying to install new/old packages, create a new user, and see if kmail works there. Try root as well. If it works, it is some configuration thing, or bad file, or index, as somebody pinted our here, but not the software - okay, it is the software :-) -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson
