Not correct. Sound server does start, but is/was muted. After "Load volumes" under Sound -> Mixer sound plays. For some reason this works now.

Now Opera does display AA'd fonts > in browser but still uses an ugly big font for its interface. Could work around the problem by selecting my favourite font within Opera. This does, however, still leave the question why "General font" under KDE did not apply to a non-KDE but yes-QT application....? (like under 2.2.1) > 3) Battery Monitor does not show up automatically on starting KDE. Erm... my mistake... sort of: I found some old crypto packages (kdelibs3-crypto and kdebase-crypto) from 2.2.1 on my system. After removing them, battery monitor comes up again. (Why?) Maybe a "conflict" tag would do to avoid this...? Thomas -- Thomas Winischhofer Vienna/Austria Check it out: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.webit.com/tw
