That means your problem is/was something else. After a long sleep, I restarted the machine & Krusader's 'open with' is ok. It looks as if the problem here is that if 'kdeinit' is started without an existing desktop to relate to, some connection is not made. As it makes no noticeable difference to start-up times, I can easily do without having 'kdeinit &' in ~/.xinitrc . -- ========================,,============================================ SUPPORT ___________//___, Philip Webb ELECTRIC /] [] [] [] [] []| Cities Centre, University of Toronto TRANSIT `-O----------O---' purslowatchassdotutorontodotca
