Hello again.

Well, I`ve already addressed the kde 2.2.2 upgrade question as Mandrake 8.1
comes with kde 2.2.1.

Originally, I had Mandrake 7.2.

Everything worked pretty well, printing etc.

Instead of doing an upgrade which I dislike in any OS, I removed the 7.2
H/D and put in a new H/D for the 8.1 installation.

It looks good, prints web pages really nice and PDF files.

Super.

So, this morning, I tried to do some WP with KWord.

Looks O.K. on the screen, ah, a preview button (new). Garbled mess.  I
print it out and the text is really close together, no spaces (that I can
see) and in bold.   This works fine in 7.2 kmail by the way.

So,  highlight cut and paste into AbiWord.  Refuses to paste.  I check the
clipboard, yes it`s there. It pastes into other text editors but not
AbiWord. Paste DOES work in AbiWord in Mandrake 7.2.

Anyone else seeing :-

a)  print problems from Kmail (v1.1 kde 2.2.1)
b)  pasting problems into AbiWord (v0.9.2 ditto)

Does kde 2.2.2 fix these problems ?

Why isn`t kde 2.2.2. available via MandrakeUpdate ?
