Thanks for the tip Andy, I'll be following the method to get KDE via YAST tonight if I get time. I've got 2 points or goals really, one is an upgrade for KDE and the second one is getting more from the command line. Going for killing both birds with the same stone is not realistic for me. Unless I want to break something really well...

Cheers,
Roger

Thanks for the missing link about why I couldn't do the KDE upgrade from within YAST.

 However this misses the whole point of wanting to learn

about downloading the relevant files from the KDE site and doing it that way.

Sure, I didn't know that was the entire point, maybe it'll prove usefull for someone else. Is KDE really the place to start compiling from scratch though? There must be at least a million things that could break something that big... Right now I'd be pleased if I could get dcraw to go ( http://www.cybercom.net/~dcoffin/dcraw/ )... ;o)

cheers,

Andy
