Follow-up: kdeprint under KDE 3.2

2004-03-03 Thread Bruce Miller

2004-02-28 Thread Bruce Miller
KMail 1.6.1 running under KDE3.2 (experimental) has suddenly become seriously unstable. Rebooting to a more conservative installation on the same computer (Libranet 2.8 using KDE 3.1.5 and KMail 1.5.4, but sharing the same /home directory) has not so far alleviated the problems. Problem 1: Sel

I have many friends whose first language is not English. Most are quite relaxed about polglotism: they write to me in their first language, and I reply in mine (English). Sometimes, however, I need to write in their language. I have been too busy learning the other mechanics of Linux to worry a
