i'm a newbie, so u have been warned!!! i think i have done something really 
stupid with my mandrake 8.1

i saw the other day that karchive didn't work and i wanted to get 'a new 
version'. i searched the internet and saw that this karchive tool is to be 
found in the package kdeutils. therefore i decided to install a newer 
version of kdeutils.

the installation program said me 'i hadn't got some libraries', but one way 
or another i forced the installation, resulting in a not working kdeutils. 
(as i said, i am a newbie and didn't read any readme files as i am not used 
to that in windows) so now i have a new kdeutils with the rest of my kde in 
an older version. :(

(i also want to mention that i did an installation with mandrakeupdate
during that very same session. it could be that i have done an update of a 
part of the kernel without knowing it, i assumed everything would be ok as 
it was an automatic mandrakeupdate, or something...)

the result is that my networkconnections are lost and that my windows-,
floppy- and cddrive-mounts are gone. so my question is can i undo this
change? or is my only hope for recovery a reinstallation?

thanx in advance,

daan
