Greetings:
 
I am providing more information on my Redhat 6.1 with kdevelop beta4 installed.
 
1. I am using Redhat 6.1 Linux. I upgraded to Redhat 6.1 from Redhat 6.0 using
   Cheapbytes 1.99 cdrom. Redhat official is to expensive. Any way, this upgrade
   used the regular Redhat RPM's, therefore the install is "binary". 
   6.1 appears to work well. For the record - kdevelop beta4 appears to install
   perfectly. Also, I have reverted back to bata3 but it has same problems as beta4.
   I'm positive beta3 worked properly on Redhat 6.0.
 
2. Linux is installed on a Abit bm6 motherboard with 350 celeron processor.
   b. Two hardrives, one WD 4.3 IDE and one IBM 9.1 SCSI. The SCSI is used for Linux.
   c. One SCSI Cdrom "toshiba"
 
3. Qt-1.44 is installed in /usr/local as is kdevelop bata4. This qt is not part of
   Redhat install. I downloaded it from 'www.troll.no'. The 1.44 and 2.01 in /usr/lib/
   do not include html. There should be no confick because neither 1.44 or 2.01
   in /usr/lib is defaulted to 'qt'. The only directories in each is a /lib. Also
   in my home directory and in the file '.bash_profile'  I have QTDIR set to
   /usr/local/qt.  
 
   When doing the ./configure command'  it list as, found qt in /usr/local/qt.
   It also lists /usr/local/html for Qt docs.
 
   Using kdevelop setup, it finds and defaults to /usr/local/qt/html for qt documation

4. I did a './configure --enable-debug' hopping to get a core dump. But I don't
   get core dumps.  I have /etc/profile ulimit -c 30000
 
 
5. To clearify, when I click 'DOC' and then click 'Qt Library'  kdevelop just
   simply goes away. This is what I called "crashed". Maybe the wrong terminology.
 
Thanks to all who have replyed to this posting. I appreciate each reply.
 
Thanks again
