I did a mistake I have three partitions Swap, / and /home
Well my mistake was in the new install I choose Format /
I can't do that since I only have one partition on my drive :) Formating / would mean loosing everything in /home, too.
But I did not choose it for /home I realize at the end of process, when askme it I want to keep my user ( I used the same user than in 8.2) and was very fun that I have no problems with my installation, everything I used until now is working well, my files are here, my mails everything.
My mail and other files were intact after the upgrade, it's just that KDE is not working.
I am goingo to do that mistake more often. Maybe you should do the same
By the way as I do not know if I am going to have problems because of my mistake I cannot get responsability of the problems that you get
Simple solution would be if my / was separated from /home. On next big system upgrade I will do that ! rgds, himba

Hi,
I just did upgrade from 8.2 to 9.0 on my notebook. During update I was informed that most of the currently installed KDE packages are conflicting with packages that are in suse9 inst. CDs. I can see why, because I did manual update of KDE 3.1.1 to 3.1.4 few weeks ago and would tink that this is the cause. I gave it a shoot anyway and left those packages intact (ignored dependencies). I was hoping that it would not be a problem - as it turned out I can't use KDE anymore. Could know this would happen :P
So is it possible to do another upgrade of KDE ? (with the same 3.1.4 packages) Will this get my KDE back?
What is recomended in a situation like this? I have a plan to upgrade my desktop computer who's KDE is similary been updated previously.
Not sure if I suffered a similar problem. I had done a number of upgrades using Usr-Local-Bin (ulb) and when I did the 9.0 upgrade a number of packages from where set as protected. This caused numerous problems until I finally went through the complete list and re-installed the packages from the 9.0 dvd.
