[Mageia-discuss] KDE update problems? Maybe?

[Marc Paré]

I am just wondering if it is just me, but, ever since the KDE update, I 
had problems with my desktops and laptops (5 in total). I have had to 
delete .kde4 (Home folder) on 4 of these boxes, and the last one has not 
been updated yet (my son just finished his summer holidays and was 
breaking in his Windows partition with his new install of WOW); now that 
summer vacation is over and WOW time is reduced, he will have to update. 
I was hoping he would try playing WOW on his Mageia partition.

Has anyone else had any problems?

Some of the problems that I have had:

-- general slow down in speed
-- Klipper would disappear at login
-- the Lan connection Icon would disappear
-- some of the KDE preferences would somehow go back to their default state
-- log off widget in the taskbar (lower-right) would quit responding
-- re-start option (Start button ...) would also stop responding

The problems happened intermittently. The KDE bug assistant did come up 
on one of my 2 laptops but I did not have sufficient information to 
submit the bug report, just general stuff like above.

I've deleted the .kde4 file and they all run fine now.

Cheers,

Marc
