test3 seems to be working for me, but it claims to not work :) Specifically,
when I start rkward, a KDE notify box pops up that says "There was a problem
starting the R backend. The following error(s) occurred: -An unspecified error
occurred that is not yet handled by RKWard. Likely RKWard will not function
properly. Please check your setup"

But the R backend is started and is apparently working without problems. I have
a KDE 4.2 Debian setup with the R 2.9 alpha from Sid. I don't think the Konsole
messages speak to this issue but I paste them below anyway.

Thanks,
Ben
