thankfully I didn't have to restart the computer: $ uptime 14:35:35 up 47 days, 10:29, 4 users, load average: 1.01, 0.64, 0.54 all it took was deleting that file (ok, I moved it) mv .DCOPserver_paulandcilla.homelinux.org__0 .DCOPserver_paulandcilla.homelinux.org__0.orig and ran konqueror and it worked. I had first logged in the guest account using gnome and it also worked, so recreating/deleting that file was the answer. learned something new! I hate "just reboot", I'd rather learn WHY.. -- Paul Cartwright Registered Linux user # 367800 Registered Ubuntu User #12459 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
