Yes the 15 or so packages become I guess 25-30 packages in KDE 3.1.2. So good idea is to do following. From command line in cli as root run : urpmi kde. This will give you all packages that have word kde in it. Look at this list and see if you need anything and then urpmi the proper full name of package. -- Yankl Tiny IT guy. 100 % Micro$oft free.
