The xterm version, Konsole, it more nicely laid out. Konq, dunno; I'm *still* trying to get all my kd3 "xml" bookmarks moved over. The biggest fault is that the festival [speech] tool, kttd, fails to init. I *do* have kde4/bin before /usr/local/bin, but I'm missing something that I don't fully undertand. Do I need to build/rebuild some of these binaries? My portupgrade -avPpk should have done that. When I mouse some text then hit Tools->Speak, an err pop-up reads: "The D-Bus call say() failed." Another error dialog pops up titled: "kttsd - The KDE Crash Handler" It says simply that a fatal error occured and that the app kttsd crashed with a segv. Is there a workaround? tia, gary -- Gary Kline kline@thought.org http://www.thought.org Public Service Unix http://jottings.thought.org http://transfinite.thought.org
