Hi

Thanks for the reply, but KPackage does not appear to be used with SuSE 
(KPackage is not included in the SuSE distribution.  A search for RPMs showed 
versions for Red Hat and Yellow Dog, but nothing for SuSE).  

As to using RPM to install the files, yes, I used -U to get the remaining 
files installed.

I noted that the file

kdebase3-SuSE

is NOT updated with the 3.2.x RPMs that SuSE provides.  Nor could I find a 
3.2.x update for the file with rpmfind or other on the net.  When I attempt 
to use YaST (without Konqueror) to install kdebase3-SuSE it returns a file 
conflict with the old 

kdebase3 ver 3.1.4 

files.

After some thought it seems that there is a problem with X here and that the 
system is not allowing YaST as an XApp to come up with Konqueror.

If anyone has any other suggestions they would be appreciated.

Thanks

Mike
