But he is right: The Website is very confusing! If you go to the main site: http://www.s-a-d.de/sad/details_produkt.php?prodID=321 You can find the description: Systemvoraussetzungen: Microsoft Windows® 98, 2000 und XP, Mac OS X , Linux EAN: 4017404010197 ISBN: 3937215409 There are two other screensavers mentioned on this site: "Arktis" and "Wale".

I suspect they get relatively little attention because no one seems to care enough to have lots of email complaints fill their inboxes... -- j nemo me impune lacessit 'Quis custodiet ipsos custodiates?' -- To unsubscribe, email: suse-kde-unsubscribe@xxxxxxxx For additional commands, email: suse-kde-help@xxxxxxxx Please do not cross-post to suse-linux-e

Re: KDE not Starting

Well, thanks for all the help. I tried the things suggested, but none of them seemed to get me any further. So, I decided to scratch the installation and try again. It isn't as bad ass it sounds, I just built the thing a couple of weeks ago, so I didn't have time to do any sigificant amount of work on it. The up side is that I learned to be very careful about kernel and video driver updates in the future. Thanks again for all the helpful suggestions. Hope y'all had a Merry Christmas and have a happy New Year. -- Bill Lugg Milstar Software Support Peterson AFB, CO On Fri, 24 December 2004 12:02 pm, BandiPat wrote: > On Friday 24 December 2004 02:04 am, William Lugg wrote: > > You may be on to something.

Re: KDE not Starting

I don't find this file in either my directory or in root's home folder. Please note that it isn't even getting to the point of displaying the KDE login screen, so I'm not sure I understand how a file in my home directory would affect it anyway. That's why I decided to look in the root folder. Any other thoughts? Thanks. -- Bill Lugg Milstar Software Support Peterson AFB, CO On Thu, 23 December 2004 10:10 am, Matt Kirk wrote: > > What do I need to do to get KDE running again?
