Hi, Generally speaking, kword works great here and on other computer too, so it's not a generic problem. Your optimization settings may be to blame, as koffice currently has problems with some settngs (the ebuild tries to compensate). What are your CXXFLAGS? > 2) Kword has lots of menus grayed out and > doesn't work very well (typical kword stuff) I don't see anything like that here. Many menus are indeed disabled, but they shuold be - frame and table-related menus when there is no table or frame in existence, etc. What menu commands are disabled for you that should be enabled? > 3) Kword is compiled with > debugging crap which you see if you do 'kword &' from a console. I've tried it and there are indeed a lot of msgs. I'm not sure that's debug level output though, debug may produce even more :-) We don't pass explicit --disable-debug to kde configures but that's supposed to be the deafult, so I don't see what can be done about this. -- Dan Armak Gentoo Linux Developer, Desktop Team Matan, Israel
