I just upgraded from kde 2.2.1 to 2.2.2. The install went very smoothly. I 
downloaded the mandrake i586 rpms from kde's ftp site. I only had two failed 
dependencies which I fixed, and then did "rpm -Uvh *.rpm" from the directory 
they were in (kde was not running at the time) and away it went.

When I returned to kde I found it to be really slow. Kmail isn't so bad, and 
non webbrowsing konqueror is ok, but kdevelop and web browsing konqueror are 
incredibly slow. Kdevelop takes a good 5 minutes to shut down, and about a 
minute to do anything (say switch to a different document). Generally 
speaking any k apps are slower than they used to be.

I'll be reinstalling Mandrake 8.1 tonight, as that's the only way I know of 
to go back to 2.2.1 and be sure of no problems. But if anyone has any ideas, 
I'm all ears.

Fortunately I backed up everything before attempting 2.2.2.

Matt
