Solved the problem by doing: # cd /var/cache/apt/archives # dpkg -i --force-overwrite kdelibs-data_4%3a3.2.0-0woody1_all.deb # apt-get upgrade Packaging probably still should be fixed though... Rest of update went smooth. 3.2 looks great! (What's all this red text ... is kMail doing spell checking on the fly now? ... wow!) Just a few little things I have noticed: - Application buttons in Panel for Konsole and Konqueror are broken - when clicked I get "The desktop entry file /usr/share/applnk/Internet/konqbrowser.desktop has no Type=... entry." - when I open properties I get "The file file:/usr/share/applnk/Internet/konqbrowser.desktop doesn't exist" (fixed by manually adding the buttons and deleting the old ones) - I seem to have lost some customization: - changes in toolbar for kMail are gone - Tab bar for Konsole was set to top, is now bottom again

This is very stable on my Woody box. Note that you will also install some backported packages from unstable/testing. If you run into problems or would like more info, you can contact me by private email (in Dutch if you like). Good luck.

It works perfectly for me. Check if you have also enabled filtering for your account in Kmail config - Network - Receiving (modify your pop-account and select 'Filter messages if they are greater then...' on the General tab). If I understand correctly, the basic filtering is done there and only the messages filtered there are passed to the pop-filters.

Re: konqueror & flash
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 I had the same problem. It may also be memory related. After installing the plugin, sometimes flash would play, but sometimes I would get the same message. My box "only" had 64MB then. I recently installed 256MB, and since then I have had no more problems. It seems related to actual _free_ memory at the moment the page is loaded. As if the plugin does not know about swapping or freeing cached memory... By the way: does anybody know why http://www.macromedia.com would only show a grayish empty page in Konqueror?

What I liked about ktown however was the fact that you offered KDE + KOffice + Ägypten all consistently compiled for Woody. Are there also alternative locations for KOffice and Ägypten that contain the packages that were available on ktown? FJP P.S. Did the upgrade from 2.2 just last weekend, so just in time! Very impressed with the improvements, especially in KMail with the GPG support. Thanks.

Arts crashes in KDE3.1.1
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hello list, I have updated from KDE2.2 to KDE3.1.1 on a Woody (3.0R1) box running a 2.4.20 kernel. Arts is configured to use Alsa, which I compiled myself for this kernel. I got the KDE upgrade from http://ktown.kde.org/~nolden/kde. Arts keeps crashing when I start certain applications, most consistently with: - - kmid (on startup) - - krec (on startup; only sometimes, see below) - - arts control tool (when opening View Environment) - - arts builder (when executing a structure) I get the KDE Crash Handler telling me the app caused the signal 11 (SIGSEGV). Also, when I start krec (and is does not crash completely), artsd dies, and I get the following message. See: http://home.tiscali.nl/arts/KRec_problem.png However, when I do 'artsshell stereoeffect list', I get: Arts::Effect_WAVECAPTURE Arts::Synth_FREEVERB Arts::Synth_STEREO_COMPRESSOR Arts::Synth_STEREO_FIR_EQUALIZER Arts::Synth_STEREO_PITCH_SHIFT Arts::Synth_STEREO_PITCH_SHIFT_FFT ExtraStereo Noatun::Equalizer Noatun::EqualizerSSE Noatun::FFTScope Noatun::FFTScopeStereo Noatun::RawScope Noatun::RawScopeStereo Noatun::StereoEffectStack Noatun::StereoVolumeControl Noatun::StereoVolumeControlSSE Noatun::WinSkinFFT RawWriter VoiceRemoval Here are some of the backtraces from KDE Crash Handler: http://home.tiscali.nl/sound_problem/kmid_crash.txt http://home.tiscali.nl/sound_problem/artsbuilder_crash.txt http://home.tiscali.nl/sound_problem/artscontrol_crash.txt http://home.tiscali.nl/sound_problem/crash.png Some configuration info: Modules: http://home.tiscali.nl/sound_problem/lsmod.txt Sound devices: http://home.tiscali.nl/sound_problem/dev.txt Info from /proc/asound: - - http://home.tiscali.nl/sound_problem/proc_asound.txt - - http://home.tiscali.nl/sound_problem/proc_asound_card0.txt Any help appreciated, FJP -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.2.1 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE+kIIwgm/Kwh6ICoQRArkZAJ4/g2jdeoTWWdXAcDcETi6m0zzXqgCfYJqJ TfP6WZc2QBtaUhBXWto2+QY= =bXUH -END PGP SIGNATURE-
