Fonts: I simply missed to install a couple of fonts. But why they was not in my old "world" file...dont know. k3b: Fixed. It is an issue with dbus having not enough rights to rebort to hald which again was used by a user-land application like k3b. I "fixed" this by badly manipulation /etc/dbus-1/system.conf (see other mail from me of today). So my system now seems to work under 64bit. Rendering becomes 30% faster!= =20 Oh yeah! ;) Best regards, mcc
