Oh, wonderful! I upgraded to 2.2.10 and it killed all my filesystems
around mid-June. forcing a reinstall. Now I'm running a ticking time bomb 
called 2.2.11! Should stable be redefined to a.b.c, where b is even and c >= 30?

now I've got this to worry about!

I built 2.2.11 with the NFS patches that come with the knfs package and
installed new versions on the client and the server. Server is now
running kernel-space daemon instead of user-space daemon. I
no longer get any boot-up errors, and lockd seems to be running OK. However,
kexpress/gdbm still can't generate locks. Wordperfect works OK, though.

Whatever..I'll go back to symlinking ~/.kde/share/apps/kexpress to
/usr/local/smpitts-kexpress and move on!
