Hi! While using dselect or dpkg it happens the same with none-Debian packages then with Debian packages. But KDE is not god for an update. Much things will not run correct after an update. This meats how i've read in a german Linux magazine all distributions. The only way to uptade KDE without having trouble is, first to deinstall KDE and then install the new KDE version. This is the fact cause i changed to Gnome. And since i use Gnome i mean Gnome is much better. KDE may be easyer to configure. But Gnome has more possibilities to configure and looks much better then KDE with the right theme. Timo -- Wer Käse mag, der futtert auch Füsse! :-)
