So my understanding is that you have a bad .desktop file, but that it's not shipped by a kde package (I've all kde packages possible installed on one of my box, and I've *no* warning at all). So maybe you should find those file, and decide if it is a : * desktop-file-utils * or a bug of the fulty .desktop file I don't know how to choose between both of them, since I don't really know how a .desktop file should be shaped. > > 3/ we know that kdm does not work, see [1] > > > > [1] http://lists.debian.org/debian-qt-kde/2005/03/msg00063.html > > Yes, I know about this message.
