    (1)I have somehow busted the konqueror web browser's file associations. I
    bring it up, specify a URL & after churning for a moment I get the ubiquitous
    'open with...' dialog box; I put in 'konqueror' and after a new browser
    loads & chruns for a moment I get the ubiquitous 'open with...' dialog box.

    I did change the html association to include firefox, then put firefox on the
    top of the list. That seems to be all it took to not only break konqueror
    but also make it impossible to click on a link w/in an e-mail to load a URL.

    (2)I am playing with the idea of simply creating a new user space for myself
    and restore all my data from backup but have found nowhere in YaST where I
    can turn on auto-login.

    Can anyone help me fix the easier of the two problems, please? :-)
