Is it essential to do it this way?
I did a "pacman -Syu" (which upgraded, but broke, KDE) followed by a "pacman
-S kde" (and responding yes to all the "already installed; upgrade anyway?"
messages).
This did seem to work. Anyone have any reason why this wouldn't be
sufficient?

P.S. I did experience one problem after the upgrade: KDE's sound (arts or
akodelib) is choppy on one of my PC's at home. But I'm not sure that that
problem is attributable to any error in the upgrade. I'm guessing it's
either: a) a bug in the new akodelib, or b) a problem with the kludgey new
sound module my card needs (emu10k1x); that module is first appearing in
2.6.11, so maybe not all the kinks are worked out yet. Problem is definitely
KDE related, though, as XMMS didn't have any such problem. I'm going to check
out sound on a different box with a different card now, and see if maybe this
is a module specific problem. If anyone else is having sound problems with
the new KDE, though, please do chime in.
Hi,
Ditto on thanks for putting this up. Is kdm gone? I prefer it over gdm.
