Perhaps more people should have gotten involved in running (frozen) testing and filed more RC bugs. I ran squeeze basically since the freeze, and moved to KDE SC 4 as soon as 4.2 landed in Sid. I didn't find any RC issues on my 2 systems or I would have filed bugs. >KDE forgets settings and won't turn off without pulling the plug. Linux >changed all the drives and the Wifi.

Sounds like all your problems are the result of removing KDE 3 applications and shipping KDE SC 4 applications. Please complain to upstream; they are the ones that decided to stop supporting KDE 3 and focus all efforts on KDE SC 4. Debian simply does not have enough KDE/Qt contributors to support something in that area without upstream. You might also try using the unofficial Trinity packages for Squeeze, but keep in mind that they do NOT play well with with official KDE SC 4 packages. -- Boyd Stephen Smith Jr. ,= ,-_-. =. bss@iguanasuicide.net ((_/)o o(\_)) ICQ: 514984 YM/AIM: DaTwinkDaddy `-'(. .)`-' http://iguanasuicide.net/ \_/
