Do the programs just fail to open, without other symptoms? Then you might want to try running the affected programs in a terminal window in KDE2 and see whether they run there. That was the only way I could ever get WordPerfect 8 to launch on KDE2, for example. For the small chess database Scid, I could get it to run without a terminal if I symlinked the related startup binaries to my home directory, so I suppose there's some sort of path glitch involved in the making of desktop objects in KDE2....but who knows? --Kevin On Mon, 26 Mar 2001 09:09:51 -0500, John Murphy wrote:

Can someone explain why some X programs work in KDE1 and not in KDE2. These are not KDE related programs so I'm guessing something in X display from within KDE2

Thanks
