What is the mechanism to update user profile configuration files when something changes in a new release?
How is a specific update tracked so updating is performed only for the first session with a new release and not repeated during subsequent sessions?
I'm working on bug report 892. The changes require a one-time search-and-replace in the user's profile directory of all occurrences of X-KDE to X-TDE.

Hey all,
Recently, TSAK has started messing up my system. Whenever I hit the
caps lock key, the keyboard basically freezes. The CPU does not
thrash, but I am almost certain it is tsak. Basically it would not
allow me to type in any new letters, and the caps light gets locked, I
then have to reboot to correct it ( well i probably could have killed
tsak)
Is TSAK grabbing ther wrong keys? this is an lenovo x220. here is my
xev output with tsak disabled:

Guys,
With all the recent publicity concerning privacy concerns with current search
provider policy changes, it would be nice to update the default list of default
search providers in Konqueror to provide users a broader ranger of choices to
meet a wider range of privacy infringement tolerance....
It should be a relatively simple task since most providers publish a url
scheme to use in forming queries. The tricky part is coming up with a list that
users will want and use. If you have a favorite - reply and let the list know.
I'll look into where they go in the code. Recently Calvin suggested startpage
and it has been good. What are some of the others you like?
Startpage
AltaVista (already available)
DogPile ?

Hi,
The update seems to have broke KM somehow. It loaded normally when I
turned on my laptop, but when I tried to log in, the user/password box
disappeared for a moment, the screen flickered, and it was asking for
my user and password. I tried several more times, and even typed the
wrong password on purpose. It seems to pick up on the wrong password
okay (displays the login failed message), but if the password is
correct, it exhibits the behavior I described.
I had to kill kdm/Xorg, login via CLI, then run startx to get into
TDE. Everything else seems fine, it's just kdm that seems to be
affected.

Tim, All,
Shutting down to kill the tsak issue, I noticed the top-half of the 'tdm'
shutdown confirmation dialog is missing:

Anybody know where this dialog lives in the code? It looks like this is
probably a kdm/tdm issue where the code is still looking for a graphic in (or
named) 'k_something..'

Tim, All,
I know there were a few tweaks involving tsak to fix the tdm.log explosion
problem. After leaving TDE running overnight, I noticed the fans on my laptop
pegged on. Huh? Checking top, tsak was eating 90-100% of my CPU.
What is tsak?
Why is it pegging the CPU?
Here is a screenshot of top showing the cpu use:

Want me to file a bug or you want to look at it first?

Anybody with experience running a fund raising drive?
I'd like us to raise $500 --- or more so Tim can update server hardware.
50 people x $10 and we're done.
I'll put up $50.

Is there an easy method to configure the TDE Menu not to show KDE3 or KDE apps?
That is, without using the menu editor, which would be clunky for such massive menu changes.
