Yes, I have activity manager in world, but I've unmasked all kde |
| 29 |
packages for version 4.8.1 and because of that, I can't get |
| 30 |
activitymanager installed because the latest verion for that is only |
| 31 |
4.7.4 and I get told kactivities-4.8.1 blocks activitymanager.. I can |
| 32 |
get into KDE after my upgrade, but I can't move windows around, nor |
| 33 |
close or resize them. So I assume activitymanager is somehow needed. |
