This move impelled me to go to XFCE as my GUI. IMO KDE4 is a Vista-class canine. This does not solve the Quanta problem. Bluefish works but it is a poor alternative IMO. We all wait for Quanta 4. I need Qt4 for apps like the latest Scribus. But losing Qaunta was a blow. -- John Culleton "Create Book Covers with Scribus" http://www.booklocker.com/books/4055.html
