Sorry I made a mistake by answering too fast . You should read: "you can NOT have both at the same time". > So far I am quite happy with TDE on Mageia-2, but I wish I had known > about your suggestion earlier today: > > "Before you login into TDE, switch to tty[1-6] and login as user.

If you try it with a KDE4 profile (I think you have KDE4 since you are using Mageia 2), I think it will not work at all. > > I have been delaying moving to Mageia-2 because of the poor state of the > Akonadified KMail, but now with TDE installed I am hoping - after trying > TDE for a while - to move over to Mageia-2 permanently. > > I am assuming I don't *need* to remove any of KDE4... > No you don't need to remove anything from KDE4. The conflict exists only with opensuse's KDE3. There are no problem with KDE4, in any distribution. Francois
