Hi I am sorry I didn't check for this yesterday, but KDE got back with icons and all when rebooted. My new .xsession-errors is now 640 kB, earlier it was roughly 500 B.
I tried KMail, but it failed to launch, increased .xsession-errors with roughly 1 kB, funny day. regards guran -- Mandrake Linux 8.2 Cooker kernel-2.4.12-3mdk per-10-19-1519
