Very helpful!  It is interesting that using the RedHat rpm which I got
from the qt site (www.troll.no), my directory is in a different place.
Did you relocate the directories to make more sense to you?
I got two warnings when I reloaded version qt-2.0.1:
/sbin/ldconfig: warning: can't open /opt/kde/lib(No such file or dir.),
skipping
AND
/sbin/ldconfig: warning: can't open /usr/lib/qt-1.44/lib (No such file or
directory), skipping
which are strange since I had been running the kde window manager and why
should there be a qt-1.44 directory expected in this version?

Sorry I missed last night's meeting - just too much on my plate (can you
believe that from a retiree?).  I especially wanted to hear Bruce's
local
networking talk.  Hope he puts something on the site on the topic.

	Thanks,   Ralph
