Hi
Does anybody know where I go in 9.2 to turn off a kdeinit service? Mine
starts a 'laptopdaemon' and I don't have a laptop. I believe it is
responsible for making my screen go blank every 60 seconds or so and
requiring me to use my password to get back in again. _very_
irritating. :-(

Hi,
I saw in the address book import options in Kmail that .vcf files
could be imported. So...I went to my Windows email program and
exported all the addresses to a single .vcf file. When I tried to
import that file into the Kmail address book,
I alway preferred Opera as a browser but never got Java or QT
working before. Never cared much. If I had to use 'em I cranked up
Moz.
The latest Opera just works. Out of the box.
