I wonder if it is safe to upgrade directly from Mandrake 10.0 to 10.1 using Mandrake 10.1 Official Edition without uninstalling KDE. I have downloaded the ISO images and burned them on CD. Any suggestions welcome. -- John Zoetebier Web site: http://www.transparent.co.nz

Many thanks, Paul and Miark. I guess it might be caused by some plugins. I remember that when I tried to install mplayer plugin, firefox crashed quite a lot in case video clips (qt, avi, mpeg) were read. All firefox windows opened were off. I had to remove the mplayerplugin. Is there some way
