Re: KDE 3.2.1 broken

[Zack Cerza <zcerza@coe.neu.edu>]

I've upgraded a couple of boxen (one from 3.2.0, one  from 3.1.4) and here's a 
couple common problems I've seen and the solutions that worked for me:

Empty KMenu:
dpkg --force-depends -P kicker && dpkg -i /var/cache/apt/archives/kicker_4%
3a3.2.1-1_i386.deb

Logging into KDM gives you a borderless xterm:
Before you login inside kdm, make sure to select your session type as KDE - 
the dist-upgrade wipes the kdmrc, and the default seems to be 'failsafe' 
which is the lone xterm thing.

Various package breakage while dist-upgrading:
Just run dist-upgrade a few more times. After I ran it 5 times, there were no 
more errors. I didn't do anything else special.

YMMV, these are just what worked for me.
