 derek, I think it's fixed now. I used the RPM from texstar, and it wanted
 one file called libxft.so.2. I found that on RPMFIND, installed it (RedHat
 RPM), then installed the tex release of k3b.
 Thanks so much for pointing me in the right direction.
 I'd like your personal opinion on this: do you think it matters in any way
 who made the RPMs, whether it's Mandrake, RH or tex. In other words is
 there any point to searching endlessly for an RPM from Mandrake or is it
 just as well to mix and match?

 Thanks,
 Jon

Jon  Yes it does matter who builds your RPMS.  RPMS can be built well, and 
they can be built badly. Texstar builds good RPMs.  He builds them against a 
standard 9.0 distribution. No cooker packages, and no third party packages. 
So you can be fairly confident they will work.  HOWEVER, sometimes his RPMs 
do depend on other RPMs of his own, and that is what you have just 
experienced. He has built k3b with libxft2 as a dependency.

What you have done is found a RedHat version of libxft2  which is NOT built 
against a Mandrake 9.0 distro. So you may have introduced font problems by 
doing so.  What I recommend you do is remove RedHats libxft2 and replace it 
with Texstars. 

Tex's libxft2 is part of a series of packages Tex has built to dramatically 
improve the fonts in Mandrake 9.0. Others packages affected are fontconfig , 
freetype2, and libqt3. (as described here:   
http://www.jennings.homelinux.net/Xft-2.html  )


I suggest you add Texstar as a urpmi source and then everything gets sorted 
out automatically.
  
In a root terminal (all on one line)
urpmi.addmedia texstar 
ftp://ftp.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distributions/contrib/texstar/linux/distributions/mandrake/9.0/rpms
 
with ./hdlist.cz

Mandrake Software Manager  will then find Texstar packages as well as Mandrake 
ones.

Update the source now and again with the command
urpmi.update -a

With audio CDs? When I try it it says it can't copy audio CDs on the fly. Is 
there a setting somewhere, or are you just a lucky guy? G

 Thanks,

There's heaps of rippers for linux - GRip is one - then there are
heaps more - both GUI and commandline.

Sites to check for cool stuff (rippers included):

http://www.betanews.com
http://www.icewalk.com
http://www.gnome.org
http://apps.kde.com
http://www.linuxapps.com
http://freshmeat.net
http://sourceforge.net

If you can't find a ripper, I'd like to sell ya some beach side property
near Alice Springs...

That sounds like it's a QT library fault - unresolved symbol. Have you
checked out that your /etc/ld.so.conf is setup properly? As well, you
might want to make sure that QT is installed properly...

On the other hand, the TCP camp also has a phrase for OSI people.
There are lots of phrases.  My favorite is `nitwit' -- and the rationale
is the Internet philosophy has always been you have extremely bright,
non-partisan researchers look at a topic, do world-class research, do
several competing implementations, have a bake-off, determine what works
best, write it down and make that the standard.
The OSI view is entirely opposite.  You take written contributions
from a much larger community, you put the contributions in a room of
committee people with, quite honestly, vast political differences and all
with their own political axes to grind, and four years later you get
something out, usually without it ever having been implemented once.
So the Internet perspective is implement it, make it work well,
then write it down, whereas the OSI perspective is to agree on it, write
it down, circulate it a lot and now we'll see if anyone can implement it
after it's an international standard and every vendor in the world is
committed to it.  One of those processes is backwards, and I don't think
it takes a Lucasian professor of physics at Oxford to figure out which.
