I recently made the mistake of "upgrading" kde 3.5.7 . The kde control centre subsequently had no index. I was able to get an index initially by deleting my .kde folder. That is no longer the case. Besides which, the control centre has no index when I open it as root user either. The last time I had an index, it disappeared after I changed the language setting from U.S. English to British English. I have the latest British language package available from the distro. Incidentally, it seems I am the only person experiencing this difficulty. I had the same difficulty when installing a previous update but I was able to revert to the earlier version and the problem disappeared. I now have no option but to keep the version currently installed. I have found the folder /usr/share/apps/kcontrol which contains a folder called 'about' and another called 'pics'. It also contains a file called 'kcontrolui.rc'. 'about' contains 'main.html' which is a masterpiece of cryptography. How do I fix this, please? -- Cheers, Terry I try to take one day at a time - but sometimes several days attack me at once (Ashleigh Brilliant) ___________________________________________________ This message is from the kde mailing list.
