Lada, and all

* I ran "kbuildsycoca" from the command line. The harddrive spun a 
little, but nothing else happened. After this I:
* Pressed Alt-F2 and entered "devices:/". Konqueror does not start up. I 
received the error message:


SORRY - KDESKTOP

devices:/

Could not run the specified command

* Next I looked for the file "devices.desktop". This file appears in two 
locations:

* etc/opt/kde3/share/apps/konqsidebartng/entries
* home/larrydavis/.kde/share/apps/konqsidebartng/entries


Of the two entries above, the "home" entry has the most recently 
modified date.

I hope this is clear.

Thanks for the quick follow-up. Looking forward to hearing from you 
again.....

Larry
