Out of interest does Kget work yet? it has been broken since I installed kde4, the packages from kde-redhat, currently @ 4.0.2 I did check the rawhide live CD and still no go. No go in that it just sits there and downloads do not start. I had been looking for a bug report on this and I believe there was a patch for either kdebase or kdelibs, of course I would have no idea if it was back ported to kde-4.0.x To me Kget is a vital part of KDE. That said I would not go back to kde-3.5.x you guys are doing an excellent job with the kde support in Fedora, kde-4 does however take a little getting used too :-) Maybe I should check out the latest F9 beta release, Cheers Colin -- Fedora release 8 (Werewolf) Registered Linux user number #342953 -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
