thanks, I'll try this in a bit...

As a note, when gentoo updated to kde3 it started the setup wizard, and
since I did not want my setup mucked with I told it no...  It thrashed
my setup and it took me an hour to figure it out and set things back

take home message, backup ~/.kde before upgrading to kde3
