Hmmmm well, I've just encountered my first major fail with KDE4.4 on openSUSE 11.2 (on a computer I support).
This is on a laptop install. It was working fine last night, but on startup this morning, the system boots, and when it gets to launching the desktop, all I see is a small box in the upper left which says:
kstartupconfig4 does not exist or fails. The error code is 4. Check your installation.
I've just picked up the laptop from the owner, and am starting to try to diagnose this... strange... I've done some Googling on this.. only one exact hit from a German language forum. There they traced it back to a kernel update. I don't know if there was an interrupted of failed auto-update when the laptop was in use yesterday.
Any ideas on this one?

C, No silver bullet on the kde4 issue, but this is exactly why I keep a current install of fluxbox, openbox, pekwm, sawfish, windowmaker, twm, fvwm2, xfce and gnome on the box :p Strangely, I find myself gravitating more toward fluxbox, xfce, gnome and kde3 than I do toward kde4. But, thankfully, 44 on 11.0 is running fine. Good luck! (really, check out fluxbox, openbox, and pekwm) Total install, less than 3 meg.
