Hi, I've installed 7.1 with XFree4 and KDE2 on two machines. On both the screensaver password has been enabled. On both, when logging on through KDM the password is often rejected (it seems one can type too fast). The screensaver, however, rejects any attempt to enter a password failing every time. Then one has to restart X, losing work etc. On one machine, kmail behaves as expected until one sends a mail. Then it simply does nothing, neither sending it, nor closing the box, nor adding it to the queue - nothing. The message has to be aborted. It receives mail OK and is set to use smtp to the correct server on the correct port. Nothing changed on the server and it worked before! Third, where's the nice little kbiff gone - I like the little letterbox icon by the clock and miss its little tune when e-mail arrives (I could hear it all over the library!). xbiff and Korn don't have that option - or is there a command line operation to play the tune without opening a new window? Any ideas? -- Best wishes, Derek Harding, (BA MIAP) ICT & Network Manager hardingd@warlingham.surrey.sch.uk
