KDE 2.2.2: anyone else with bugs in packages from SuSE
I have upgraded to KDE 2.2.2 using the official SuSE rpms for SuSE 7.1. I have 4 new "bugs": 1- as root konqueror takes 10-15 seconds to respond to any user input (mouse, keyboard) 2- general behaviour of konqueror for normal users is like Netscape 4.x: slow reactions (although not as bad as for root) and the occasional freeze 3- the KDM login dialog defaults to show a clock and list of users. I cannot disable this anymore in KDE Control Center 4. the generic "save as" dialog box displays a huge text field (3 times the normal height) where you're supposed to enter the filename KDE 2.2.1 worked like a charm. KDE 2.2.2 is definitely no improvement (at least not in my case). Anyone else with this sort of problems? How can I get rid of them?

never tried as root

ACK, I had the same experiance, extrem slow reaction, even worse speed that Netscape.. Point 3 and 4 I did not take care...
KDE 2.2.1 worked like a charm. KDE 2.2.2 is definitely no improvement (at least not in my case).
There was one improvement: konsole middle-mouse-button paste works again :-)

I suggest you to install KDE3 Beta1 its MUCH faster, and stable as 2.2.2 is SuSE is providing the Beta1 rpms, just choose a mirror near you. HTH, rgds Luc

I haven't messed with the Beta yet.
