Re:
Hi, despite configuring the monitor to turn off after 2 hours, it just 
freezes whatever Kscreensaver is running at the time, all day or night 
if you leave it. It wakes OK though.
This seems to be the case since applying updates.
And installing Seamonkey 1.04 from the Seamonkey 1.04.tar.gz, as I have 
grown tired of waiting for it to make the ubuntu repos as a package
Now one has to configure a blank screensaver to save the poor screen
Why is this so?
Any suggestions appreciated.
Cheers
Rod

*Kubuntu LTS is running KDE 3.5.3, maybe I'll try upgrading to  3.5.4
Thanx Scott---here's hoping

Tried an apt-get KDE:--
*Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.

Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  kde: Depends: kdesdk but it is not going to be installed
E: Broken packages

So* the upgades have broken a few things in LTS, so I guess its backup and goodbye
to this LTS installation unless it can be fixed, maybe I'll try apt-get dist upgrade
before I go?
