Are you using Fedora KDE packages? They're pretty substandard and if so you may find the ones from the kde-redhat repository here are a better bet: http://kde-redhat.sourceforge.net/ Also, are you using true transparency and drop shadows with the composite extention in X.org? This is a great way of getting X to crash randomly. Another place to look for error messages is in ~/.xsession-errors -- Jessica Hall KDE Frequently Asked Questions: http://docs.kde.org/development/en/kdebase/faq/index.html panic("esp_handle: current_SC == penguin within interrupt!"); ___________________________________________________ .
