Dear all,

Hi Gert...

a while ago i upgraded to kde 3.0.5. Everything went fine except for 2 problems:

It would be better if you could tell which Distribution in which version you are using. KDE for itself alone tells nothing.

1) for one user the number of desktops always is 4 at logon. I can change it with control center (+apply) but the next logon it is 4 again

I can't tell you something therefore. But take a look into the config-file for the desktop before and after you made the changes and look if it was saved. Also change it in control-center and press ok. Close the control-center and recall it and look if all was ok or not.

2) At startup the system says: please check the following files: /etc/X11/qtrc.rpmnew it contains only minor changes to /etc/X11/qtrc

2 questions:

1) has this anything to do with my first problem?

Definitely no! It just told you that there was a new version of qtrc installed with rpm. The new config-file was saved like you see as .rpmnew. If you are interested to use eventually new features of this file you should rename it to qtrc. Else delete it on your own risk. You will find this information anytime you updated an installed rpm-packet if this package have a configfile with changes of you. The reason therefore is just a script which scan some directorys on boottime for new configfiles because most of the user forgot to look into the directories after they've installed new files, to change the old to the new configs

2) what must i do to get rid of this line at startup?

Do what I say ;). If you don't need this file just delete it. Elsewhere rename it and you will never find this "line" at startup. ;)

thx, Gert Caers
