Euro support for Kde 2
Hello all!! I would like to introduce myself: I'm javi and I'm working giving Linux support for the spanish governement, we are trying to port NT clients to Debian Linux. Now we have a very important problem to face: we have to support euro under Debian/Woody, this seems impossible. We have read a lot of sources of imformation, a lot of HOWTO's and document like that, but we haven't found a definitive document, all is too confusing. I must to say that we have euro support under terminal but no with X's.

Programs Won't Start
On my Debian unstable system, programs are not starting as fast as they once did and often are simply not starting. I followed the tips and turned off the opening screen in Konqueror and noticed that it started up in less that 5 seconds. Now I can choose it from the Internet menu and the hourglass will animate with the Konqueror name up in the application panel for up to 45 seconds, but Konqueror will not start nor open a window. Unless something changes, I am without Konqueror for the moment. Any ideas are much appreciated. -- Comments and information are appreciated.

While this is true, the error message is just informative; the Xlib: warning should not prevent an application startup (Of course, you didn't imply that it would be fatal either, I just thought this needs a clarification). I 'm fairly certain your problem lies elsewhere. You could try to start konqueror with strace and try to find out what the app is doing just before it 's gone again; and while you don't have source-level debugging (you'd have to compile konqueror yourself, with -g option) with the binary package, you could use ddd or gdb directly to try to look into what the application is doing. I'm not certain how you can tell gdb to stop right before the program quits, though; you might have to step through the konqueror execution phase. If you don 't know how to use strace, man strace; if you don 't know how to use gdb (GNU debugger) or its frontend ddd (data display debugger IIRC, apt-get install ddd to install), that last option might be difficult to use (I'm just playing with gdb, so questions WRT are not likely to be answered by me.

Re: konsole issues
Thus spake Jens Benecke ([EMAIL PROTECTED]): In kcontrol the 'console' application is probably set for 'x-terminal-emulator', which is the default 'terminal emulator' for _all_ Debian applications. You can either change that (only for KDE) or change x-terminal-emulator via 'update-alternatives' which makes konsole available to all applications that need a terminal. Thanks for the tip (you too David) -- using update-alternatives did the trick. I still can't figure out why KDE wasn't paying attention to the setting in kcontrol though -- that is the very one I was toggling. I'd like to think that it would work and I wouldn't have to change the system-wide default (though it's ok in this case). -- Justin R.

I copied over the addressbook file into kmail, and didn't have any addresses in it. So, I clicked open the address book, and it will kindly IMPORT addresses etc. So, I attempted to import the address book entries to no avial. Clicking on the help/contents reveals a yet to be written help for it :) So, question is, has anyone imported kmail address book from 2.1.2 potato kde to latest unstable kde?
