Seems I spoke a bit too soon. The actual symptoms I have are:
KMail, which starts from the saved state of my KDE login, has no icons.
Konqueror, which also starts from the saved state, does have icons, but when
I start a new konq from the command line, it has no icons, but hte one
started from the panel does?!?
Also, I seem to be missing the start-up splash screen, with the big KDE and
the progress report of KDE's startup. I only have a single vertical line,
similar to a cursor in the middle of nothingness?
For the moment, this is not hindering me too much, I jsut have to use the
menu items for kmail rather than the icons, but I'll wait until this is fixed
before I upgrade again.
Cheers,
John Gay
