Hi Andrei,


I have reinstalled kde4 and the problem persists: when click on KDE menu
> start button the KDE4 desktop vanishes.



Yes, I also re-installed KDE4 without success. I wondered if there was
an error in the SUSE package dependencies, but I use a combination of YAST
and Smart, for package management, so it's possible my RPM database got
corrupted.

Anyway, to answer your question, open the YAST "Software
Management" program, then select the "Package" menu, then the "All Packages"
menu item, then "Update if newer version available".

The attached screen-shot should also help.

It's a good idea to do this from time to time anyway to keep your system up
to date.

Good luck and please let me know whether you're successful or not.

Cheers
Ian
