I always update with emerge -uvaDN world and sometimes just do a emerge -ev world. I did a emerge -ev world not to long ago, a month or so. I lost my binary packages when moving things around the other day so I plan to do a emerge -ev world when the next KDE update comes out. So, everything SHOULD be up to date but I could be wrong. Maybe something that COULD be unmasked is not or something. Here is a list: root@fireball / # equery list *plasma* * Searching for *plasma* ... [IP-] [ ] kde-base/kdeplasma-addons-4.9.4:4 [IP-] [ ] kde-base/libplasmaclock-4.9.4:4 [IP-] [ ] kde-base/libplasmagenericshell-4.9.4:4 [IP-] [ ] kde-base/plasma-apps-4.9.4:4 [IP-] [ ] kde-base/plasma-runtime-4.9.4:4 [IP-] [ ] kde-base/plasma-workspace-4.9.4:4 root@fireball / # It seems everything plasma related is 4.9.4 at least. If this was back in the old days, I could just unmerge everything kde and delete the kde directory in /usr and emerge kde again. But, they got rid of the kde directory way so that is not going to be easy. KDE stuff is thrown to every corner of the file system now. I may do a fresh install on another directory then copy it over. I just don't want to deal with all that right now. I got to much stuff going on. ;-) Maybe one day it will work. I been using that other app you mentioned and it works OK. I had to change a few things but it is cool. I just wish I could get it to move from the far right corner. When I try to move it, it just bounces right back to the far right corner. The others move fine but not that one. Oh well. Beats what I had before. Thanks for the help.
