  Thanks for the releases. We've been running the rawhide and Fedora 13 
versions (86_64 and i686 - fully updated) for a few weeks now and have 
the following comments to date (comments apply to both versions):

1. Dolphin crashes - it always happens when the cursor is positioned 
over a '.rpm' file. Other times, it crashes spontaneously. No error 
messages in either case.

2. Slow response - while the response time between initiating an action 
(for example, deleting a file) and it's successful completion is 
generally speedy/normal, on occasion (1 out of 7-8 times) the turn-over 
time is very slow. For example, the system took about 45 seconds to 
delete a 11KB file before we could proceed to the next activity in that 
folder (which, btw, was deletion of a 5 MB file --- the turnover was 
virtually instantaneous).

3. Desktop settings - on all machines, our custom background settings 
were replaced by the default setting. With '80.1' this happened only 
when it was installed; with the '.85' edition, the replacement happens 
on each reboot.

Systems -- i686 and x86_64 Fedora 14 with above kde and latest updates. 
In all cases, these are fresh installs.

We've tried logging in as a regular user, new user and root with the 
same result.

We appreciate help in resolving these issues.


John
