I'm picking up the saga from "how NOT to work with debian" thread - now that the basic problems are solved, there are just a few left-overs.
I used the radical method of puging every kde and qt related file from the system by hand in order to lose the malign influence of the old Woody and RedHat installs, as suggested by Michael Schleif. Mostly, it worked. But I am left with a load of screwed up menus through many applications. Mostly htese show up as a menu heading of "No text!" or a menu containing all the items in one section twice, usually with the other sections missing. All the "No text!" ones also suffer from the duplicate items poblem. Any suggestions how to re-configure the menus? It seems to me to be kde-wide, rather than application-related. Mozilla, qcad, kate are unaffected, whereas kedit, kmail, konqueror are (some examples). TIA -- richard -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
