Hey I can't believe it...I can actually help someone else for a change!
Paul gave me this fix for the known bug (as Denis calls it) regarding
.kderc ... fix follows:
as root do a chown <user>.<user> for .kderc
e.g.
chown fran.fran .kderc
or
chown bambi.bambi .kderc
Works like a champ!
And thanks again Paul and Denis for helping on this one!
