How to transfer kde-desktop settings?
Dear Suse Users: It is said that it's better to do a clean install instead of updating Suse (eg from 9.2 to 9.3). So far I've been running 9.2 but I installed 9.3 onto another partition. On 9.2 the home folder was mounted onto a separate partition from the root directory. I would like to use this home partition with 9.3 too. Simply mounting this partition under home in 9.3 results in ignoring my kde settings after logging in kde, and instead a brand new kde desktop is created. How could I keep my old kde desktop-settings like font types and sizes, desktop icons, background images and colors, icon types etc. in Suse 9.3? In Suse 9.2 I had kde-3.3.2 level "a", in Suse 9.3 I have kde-3.4.0 level "b". Thanks, IG ____________________________________________________________________________ Go.hu - az [origo] és a Vista közös diszkont utazási irodája, árgaranciával. Elvágyódik? www.go.hu
