I switched over from 1.1.2 completely at the 1.93 beta because I wanted to use Koffice. I also completely deleted all of kde1.1.2 before installing the new files in /usr. I've had a problem with no sound and a problem with Wordperfect Office 2000 not working. I'm still trying to sort out the wpo problem. I should add I'm running the 2.2.17 kernel and xfree86 4.01. I'm sure your problem is something simple...most problems are when you finally figure them out. Jerry -- Gerald Williams -- Words Matter! Bangkok, Thailand
