Allen, I'm glad you figured out what was going on. I've had issues with customizing some things in the KDE menus myself before, but never what you have seen. (usually kicker just disappears.) I'll file this one away for future reference. Thanks for sharing your resolution. -Mike

I found the problem that was causing the crashes. There was a problem in how I customized /etc/profile and other shell startup files. After a rather painful debug session I was able to narrow the problem down to those files. Now that the problem is fixed Kubuntu seems quite stable. -- Allen Brown [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://brown.armoredpenguin.com/~abrown/ Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake. --- Napoleon Bonaparte Allen Brown wrote: > I just installed Ubuntu/Kubuntu/Xubuntu 7.10 Gutsy.
