hm, yes, maybe I should have gone the hard way - but I was pretty frustrated ;) And I copied back my konqueror/kmail/kwallet related files - so this ones are not the culprits ;) So, I lost not too much customization - just some colours, the window decorations and font-settings... Maybe it was the fact, that I used baghira with my old installation, which I did not installed again. Glück Auf Volker -- [email protected] mailing list
