Morning every application was working ok. Now all kde applications like kwrite, home etc takes very long time to start. It freezes windows. In oocalc, file open is done quickly from fileopen dialog. If I use recently open it hangs. I thing after returing to India I used tzconfig in the morning. Whether it can cause these problems? If so what are the solutions -- L.V.Gandhi http://lvgandhi.tripod.com/ linux user No.205042
