Thanks for a lot of work on these packages everyone, but especially Slavek :) Nothing to report on the installation, upgraded smooth as silk. However I've a couple of issues, one is in the logs. Apparently kdm on login is trying to update /etc/qt3/qt_plugins_3.3rc but has already dropped permissions. This might be the source of another issue I have with black backgrounds on some window elements. I'd like to know what other people's qt_plugins_3.3rc looks like. This upgrade machine is missing all but plastik which doesn't seem right. The one on my normal desktop lists most but not all of the .so files in /opt/trinity/lib/trinity/plugins. How should the file get updated normally, please ? Kernel is 3.2 and graphics driver is Nvidia 295. This is what /etc/qt3/qt_plugins_3.3rc says post-upgrade (I think I told dpkg to replace it when it queried but am not sure). $ cat /etc/qt3/qt_plugins_3.3rc [opt] trinity/lib/trinity/plugins/styles/plastik.so=30300^e3^ex86_64 Linux g++-4.* full-config^e2012-08-04T18:53:43^e [usr] lib/qt3/plugins/imageformats/libqmng.so=30300^e3^ex86_64 Linux g++-4.* full-config^e2012-08-04T16:21:10^e lib/qt3/plugins/inputmethods/libqimsw-multi.so=30300^e3^ex86_64 Linux g++-4.* full-config^e2012-08-04T16:21:10^e lib/qt3/plugins/inputmethods/libqimsw-none.so=30300^e3^ex86_64 Linux g++-4.* full-config^e2012-08-04T16:21:10^e lib/qt3/plugins/inputmethods/libqsimple.so=30300^e3^ex86_64 Linux g++-4.* full-config^e2012-08-04T16:21:10^e lib/qt3/plugins/inputmethods/libqxim.so=30300^e3^ex86_64 Linux g++-4.* full-config^e2012-08-04T16:21:10^e lib/trinity/plugins/styles/plastik.so=30306^e3^ei686 Linux g++-4.* full-config^e2006-09-29T20:06:31^e This is the first few lines of the user .xsession-errors: Xsession: X session started for leveret at Sun Aug 5 18:47:01 CEST 2012 /usr/bin/xmodmap: unable to open file '/usr/share/apps/kxkb/ubuntu.xmodmap' for reading /usr/bin/xmodmap: 1 error encountered, aborting. gpg-agent[3918]: enabled debug flags: assuan [startkde] Starting startkde.
