Hi,
I wonder if someone could advise me.

While running 8.2 I attempted to upgrade k3b using a SuSe rpm to allow DVD 
burning. In doing so k3b completely failed to work from that point simply not 
even getting to the splash screen.

I then upgraded to 9.1 using the upgrade rather than new install option. Now 
k3b continues to fail but does give some diagnostics:-

"The application k3b crashed and caused the signal 11 (SIGSEGV)"
 
and...

"This backtrace appears to be useless.
This is probably because your packages are built in a way which prevents 
creating of proper backtraces, or the stack frame was seriously corrupted in 
the crash."

No doubt I could install as new but I do not wish to lose about a month of 
emails and so forth.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Ros
