This is odd. I use Licq, Kinkatta and a few other apps under KDE3 from KDE2, but I don't have the compat RPM installed. I'm using the pkgs that were first released on ftp.kde.org.
Are these two apps not concidered true KDE apps..just QT apps?
Well, it can work, if you really started kdeinit & dcopserver from KDE 3 before (happened during the KDE start, but you are in trouble, if you start first a KDE 2 application under any other windowmanager and start a KDE 3 application afterwards) and the KDE 2 application does not miss any extra data (since it uses /opt/kde3/share/apps and not /opt/kde2/share/apps/) And kdesu can lead into a kdeinit suicide (happened here I guess). So it might work, but it is definitive not sure for all apps or enviroments. bye adrian ********************************************************************** Adrian Schroeter SuSE AG, Deutschherrnstr. 15-19, 90429 Nuernberg, Germany email: adrian@suse.de (1395 mails already received today.)
