As I have said, I have the same problem. I don't know if this has something to do with that but when I try to enter as root (only root) at the Font Installer applet in KDE Control Center I get an error stating: "File does not exist and folder is not writeable." I don't know what this dialog refers to and how I can fix this problem. -- Regards, Rafa -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
