Honourable Sir Robin,
Methinks that this was previously regurgitated in the kde-linux group -
tried doing a search through, but can't quite seem to locate the
particular thread - or could be due to dain bramage.
I recall, though, something to the effect of a bad linking against
older libraries...
You might, dear Sir, want to have a peruse of that listing...as there
is quite a bit of good talk...
BTW, KDE 3.1 kicks-ass. Gnome 2.2.0 still leaves alot to be desired...
Cheers and Turkish Beers!
