I reported this back when 6.2 was released but havn't upgraded to 6.3 and the newest versions of KDE to try it again. Anyone want to give it a go? You can find my fixes for it in the archives that when done quickly enough, you won't have to reset. Anyway, Happy New Years. jk> -- S.Toms - tomas@primenet.com - homepage is in the works SuSE Linux v6.2+ - Kernel 2.2.13 Real Users know your home telephone number. -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/
