-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Ok, word has come down from on high that many of the issues people have experienced has been fixed, e.g. the KDE Crash Handler presenting itself each time at shut. One of the workarounds was to delete the .kde folder in the <user> directory. This was not very favorable concerning settings, files and desktop customization being lost. Seems there was a short time a kdebase3 package didn't have the kdebase3-konqeror package in it. So a YaST installed (or manually installed) kdebase3-konqueror packages weren't available - this is now fixed NOW to FIX this you'll need to do rpm -e kdebase3-konqueror and then reinstall the "kdebase3" package provide on the SuSE ftp site for kde. You can do this manually by downloading the package, or if YaST is set up and accessing the alternative ftp "yast-source" directory then you can go this route. Just a reminder. SuSE has created a "yast-source" directory on the public ftp server under the parent directory of kde supplementary updates of 8.1 (I haven't looked at the other versions to see of this is there - ? don't know if it is ). Anyway, to be able to use YaST via install and remove software you start YaST - ->Change source of installation -> add ftp. Server: ftp.gwdg.de Directory: pub/linux/suse/ftp.suse.com/suse/i386/supplementary/KDE/update_for_8.1/yast-source Be sure that the kde 3.1 is the first source (button up/down - move to top). Start Yast: add/remove software and you should see the kde3.1 package. This system has just been put in place and has only been officially tested with two machines. Others had noted that they can use this while some have had little success - this issue, if your experiencing it, should be resolved in due course. Cheers and hope this helps. Curtis. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.7 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE+Wo2o7WVLiDrqeksRAuBIAKDehNkOqgUiLxe9t9/+z7KNKwjx5wCfX5eq OlChg5slWIbH1eB2g/NTL6I= =Sv9K -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
