Re: KDE wins Linux Journal´s Editor Choice Award

Have you actually tried building KDE from scratch? Most of the problems I have been hearing are coming from one of two distros, and yours is one of them. I can't help but suspect the package. I do see some annoyances here and there, but no grave or critical problems. Konq has crashed only once in three weeks, and the same site that crashed it hung Netscape.

If you don't want to rebuild from scratch, try a package from a different distro.

ps.s Your lynx "solution" sounds eerily reminiscent of some Slashdot posts from the time of GNOME-1.0, where it was common to see "I fixed GNOME by installing KDE".

I hadn't thought about trying another distro's packages (and neither would a typical end user, in all probability) - but I may just give it a try just because I'm desperate to use kmail. ;)

And yeah, the irony of KDE being suddenly less stable than GNOME isn't lost on me. I agree that it's most likely Mandrake's packages causing the problem - they really rushed it out for the holidays.
