Hello. I recently installed SuSE 9.0 (and it works for the most). However, I can't launch some kde utilities from the konsole, e.g. : bob@Dudule:~> kcontrol kcontrol: error while loading shared libraries: libkdeui.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory (however, the kcontrol starts from the menu) bob@Dudule:~> kword kword: error while loading shared libraries: libkspell.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory (and kword doesn't start at all) bob@Dudule:~> kcmbell kcmbell: error while loading shared libraries: libqt.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory But I'm sure these libraries are there: bob@Dudule:~> ls /opt/kde3/lib/libkdeui* -l -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1412 2003-09-24 02:50 /opt/kde3/lib/libkdeui.la lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 17 2004-01-05 23:08 /opt/kde3/lib/libkdeui.so -> libkdeui.so.4.1.0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 17 2004-01-05 23:08 /opt/kde3/lib/libkdeui.so.4 -> libkdeui.so.4.1.0 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 3236328 2003-09-24 03:33 /opt/kde3/lib/libkdeui.so.4.1.0 Perhaps should I reinstall something but what packages exactly ?

Robert ============
Robert, I think I had some of this same problem, but honestly have forgotten exactly what I did to make it work. If you are using some of your old settings, this could possibly be part of the problem. Clear out your /tmp directory as there could possibly be something there causing it. I created a new user with no settings, to test, finding that the new user would work just fine, so that led me to search out old settings, etc. There might also be a message in the mail archives that I had posted as well, so do a search in there. Sorry I can't remember exactly what it was that needed to be done. You might also try running "ldconfig" in a shell as root too.

Really? I don't see libkdeui.so.3 beneath. Have a look again.

There might be some packages from a different version installed. Do this: rpm -qa | grep "^kde" | less That lists all installed kde packages. Now look carefully and see if they *all* are from the same version. If not, replace the different ones. HTH, Cheers, Leen
Robert, Check your konsole enviroment for QTDIR, KDEDIR and LD_LIBRARY_PATH. These should point, if present to the correct kde and qt lib directories. Maybe it is still pointing to the old libraries, so also ldconfig. Marc On Friday 09 January 2004 14:39, Robert Cabane wrote:

True ! None of these variables are defined. What are their default values and how can I set them for future sessions ? Robert
Robert, Is this a new installation from scratch or an upgrade. In principle if you use the standard upgrade YAST tool, it should take care of the proper environment changes. Check the /etc/ls.so.config file and look for the proper lib directories. If these are present, runs as root SuSEconfig which will execute ldconfig as well. try again to kick of KDE windowmanager. Workaround: assumption (kde is in /opt/kde3, qt in /usr/lib/qt3) as root: init 3 (stop the kdm) su - user vi .bashrc file insert: export QTDIR=/usr/lib/qt3 export KDEDIR=/opt/kde3 export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/qt3/lib:/opt/kde3/lib export PATH=/usr/lib/qt3/bin:/opt/kde3/bin:$PATH exit user to root: export WINDOWMANAGER=/opt/kde3/bin/kdm startx Hopefully this gets you kind of running. If this is the case your default environment is not properly undated during the install/upgrade process. Regards, Marc On Tuesday 13 January 2004 15:06, Robert Cabane wrote:
