Hi I am using the latest version of kde2.1.1 from the SuSE rpm's and have just looked inside $HOME/.xession-errors and there are a few warnings and errors, please see the end of this email. Everything seemed to work okay and I was going to ignore these messages, but Noatun refuses to work....Has anyone had simillar problems, messages? I am using SuSE 6.3, 2.2.18, KDE 2.1.1. - SuSE rpm's dated 20/4/01. Also what is going on with this message?
