Hi Bryce
Having just experienced KDE hanging during one of the initial stages of startup, you may want to try running ldconfig.. It solved the problem I was having.
Regards, Paul.

Thanks for the tip Paul but I need to know how to run idconfig. I mean, I
tried typing idconfig as root and a user at the command line, but nothing
happens of course. What do I need to do? The thing is that all the plugins
(realplayer and the like) are already present and correct on my system. Last
week konqueror and navigator used them properly and realplayer did it's job.
Somehow, the system has got itself confused and thinks the plugins are not
present (or something like that because it prompts me to download them). This
is one aspect of linux that really annoys me. Everything is set up correctly
and working one week, and the next things stop working for no apparent
reason. Anyway, if you can give me as much detail about running or doing this
idconfig thing, I would be very grateful.
Regards,
