As a newbie my first step would be to check whether or not your problem is user specific or not. Can you log in as a different user and see if you still have the same problems ? -- Newbie Seeking USER_FUNCTIONALITY always!

I am not familiar with this app, but normally your user configuration will be stored in a hidden file or folder in your /home. Set konqueror to show hidden files and you will be able to find it (They start with '.') If it is a KDE based app, then the set up file will be somewhere in ~/.kde/share/config or maybe in ~/.kde/share/apps If you delete the user config file a new one will be automatically created next time you run it with default configuration. derek -- www.jennings.homelinux.net http://twiki.mdklinuxfaq.org Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?
