I got some problems along the same line.It isn't as bad because I only use konqueror with windowmaker. But that is crashing a lot (works max for 4 hrs. and then it starts flickering and crashing completely in certain directories). It is always limited to one account,too. This is the second install I with these problems.Other file managers work fine (use rox-filer now for a couple of days w/o a glitch. KDE works also fine with gentoo on the same machine (but thats KDE3). Basically I got debian on for a stable environment and gentoo for playing around and breaking things. Seems like I might have to rethink this ;-0 Klaus -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
