Hello FreeBSD 8.00-RELEASE-p3, KDE 4.4 (? not sure see below) KDE seems to be mostly working (more on that later) but afer working for a few days, all KDE's icons have disappeared. By that I mean all icons in the panel and all icons when I click on where the KDE-wheel 'is'. Sorthcuts previously put in the panel work when clicked but there is no visible icon... I don't explicitly recall doing anything peculiar other than installing sane front and back ends from ports...??? The other thing is that some applications launch and then die. Known to behave this way are Konsole and KHelp. The launch animation blinks and danses and then goes away. But Thunderbird and Firefox start, as well as xterm through KDE/Run Command. Wish I could provide more info. TIA Bernard Higonnet ___________________________________________________ This message is from the kde mailing list.
