I agree. I have hesitated in reinstalling KDE in case the same issue occurs.
I will try one more time at installing KDE and see what occurs. Of course i
will look for all appropriate packages only. Since i had limited internet
connection with KDE and should any errors occur i will attempt to notify you
of the bugs through KDE. If that fails i will attempt to get as much info as
possible and send it via Gnome. If after the next attempt KDE fails i will
not continue to try and will remain with Gnome only. Thank you very much for
spending so much time and consideration on this bug. it is appreciated.
