kde uses for its major versionds (3.3, 3.4, 3.5) different directories
(.kde3.3, .kde3.4, .kde3.5). Worst case - you have to set a symlink (.kde)

Hi,
get one of the vendors test-tools, let them run, write down the error message
and then bring it back - if you still have guarantee.
You may can try a different cable, but when only one partition died so far, it
is most probably not the cable.

Hi,
nobody wants to hurt, harm or insult you.
It is just that 95% of all public mailing lists have this two simple rules:
no top posting
no html
A lot of people don't even read html mails, some even get angry about them, so
when somebody tells you, not to send them, (s)he does it to help you.
