qt 3.1 built for 9.0, and it has Xft and
Xrender both set in the config options. I also have Xft2 installed here. If
it is Xft, why does it work on 9.0 and why did it work at beta3.

few more things in then. I want
packet writing included in the kernel.
But this does mean that 9.1 goes out the door with KDE and KDE apps unable to
run in Xnest or vnc. Major, major, major, and it means I'm going to have to
stick to 9.0. oh Poo.

The problem still exists that after user runs drakconnect, GNOME cannot
resolve localhost. Before and after entry in /etc/hosts is the same
127.0.0.1 localhost
Whatever is preventing GNOME from resolving localhost after drakconnect is run
lies elsewhere. Any ideas? I'm out of them.

Be careful, because if you do this, you can no longer use drakconnect. If
user runs drakconnect after making this change, dhcp-client and dhcp-common
