If any KDE Developers peruse this list, please take note of this phenomena. I believe this probles lies in the method the applet handles threads, but that is only the opinion of a non-KDE developer. -- Thank you for any comments or information!

I dont think filing bugs against 2.x builds of KDE (I think from the previous message he states he was using the Debian packages anyway) is a good idea right now, since 3.0 is already out the door. Apparently KNewsTicker got an overhaul in 3.0 anyway, you might want to wait till you try 3.0 and see if the bug persists before filing any reports. -- Kamil Kisiel [EMAIL PROTECTED] ICQ: 253495 GPG KeyID: 0xC61F6FD4 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Sure, you're right. Always try out the newest available version first, of course. - -- - -M - --- Magnus von Koeller --- email:[EMAIL PROTECTED] address: Georg-Westermann-Allee 76 D-38104 Braunschweig / Germany phone:+49-531-2094886 mobile: +49-179-4562940 web: http://www.vonkoeller.de -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iD8DBQE8s1D+UIvM6e6BgFARAj7HAJ9n67HMljJeLq4zyHac8IBQdt7LCwCgyOf9 AaqNlNEhttE6EqSRWb2wKlE= =gEls -END PGP SIGNATURE- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
