Mr. Martinez:
I see. Do the libraries for RedHat5.2 and RedHat6.1 exist on one particular
library that is not called libg++...etc? I had a version of KDE on a
Idiot's Guide to Linux (Caldera) CD. I was using this KDE when I had 5.2
RedHat. I since have purchased 6.1 RedHat and it had both gnome and kde.
What I could not find were the games that came with the old KDE. Anyhow,
I went thru every new KDE install again, but the old version with Caldera
(book CD), installed KDE on the /opt partition. This is not where RedHat6.1
installs it.
Last question, Is there a particular library that you know of that may be in
conflict? If not, I may uninstall and install any QT I find.
Thanks,
David Whitehurst
