hi, I had the same problem with Licq. after you install go to the console

Hy Lei Tie,

wrong serial port. If you want to follow the PPP HOWTO, you need
scripts, ppp-on, ppp-off, and ppp-on-dialer, that are in
/usr/docs/ppp-2.3.7/scripts. I moved them to /etc/ppp and filled out
ppp-on with info

GNOME buttons "gnc 2", etc) covered my task bar at the top of the
screen. I can't find how to get rid of them and return to pure KDE. Any
suggestions of what to do?

If X doesn't work with those settings then I guess you do

During the instalation of kdevelop it asks me about the localization of the
