FWIW, after installing Flash 5 and JRE 1.1.3 Konqueror wouldn't start as either file manager or web browser as normal user after loging out and back in. I didn't try it as root.. I finally had to remove KDE <urpme kde> and reinstall the whole shootin' match... I tried this twice to make sure I hadn't messed up the first time and then just installed JRE 1.1.3 <from sun> and everything seems OK niw.. Must have been Flash 5 that trashed it.. -- Ken Thompson, North West Antique Autos Payette, Idaho Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.nwaa.com Sales and brokering of antique autos and parts.
