Re: kde2.2 alpha
I was wondering if, as a boon to the kde developers, all pre-unstable snapshots (of kde 2.2alpha specifically) could be built with debugging support. I've been trying to be a good end user and file bug reports on crashes and whatnot, but with the binaries stripped, oftentime I know it's somewhat useless. Of course, once they are rolled into sid/woody/whatever, they should be stripped again, but at least at this stage, I'd prefer to give the dev's all the help they can get. And if someone complains that the alpha-quality pre-unstable packages are too big, well, tough beans :-) Use the regular stuff, then. Just a thought, I might be missing something that is obvious to everyone else. It's happened before :-) I understand the desire to help the developers out more..however I use this as my desktop and speed is important to me. :)The current builds of 2.2alpha have the basic debugging turned on and when there are problems that require anything beyond that it doesn't take me long to rebuild a package with --enable-debug...however running my desktop with that would be crazy.

Logout Script
How can I start a script to read any input before KDE exits? Before KDE 2.1 I had this in .xsession: , | do some stuff | # Now start KDE | startkde | # KDE has finished, start a xterm with a logout script | xterm -e path_to_logout_script ` When I quit KDE the xterm opens and starts the logout script. This script can start a backup and reads user input with the read command. Worked quite well in KDE 2.0 but not in 2.1: Now the xterm pops up but I can't enter any letters, no input in this xterm possible. Is there a clean way to start a logout script when I exit KDE? TIA, Burkhard

I'm using the 0.97 drivers and I *think* I have anti-aliasing working. At least $QT_XFT = 1 and the fonts seem to look somewhat better then they did before to my untrained eye. -- Jaldhar H.
