Upgrade problems

As I wrote in my previous blog, I upgraded from Kubuntu 7.04 to 7.10.
First, I have to say that at least all my data was saved, and I didn't have to restore it from the backup CD.

But, I detected the following problems:

• Adept_manager can not connect to the internet. I don't know why, because most of the other applications do it without any problems, including Konqueror, Firefox, Thunderbird, Amarok, and Kopete.
  
• Similarly, evolution can not connect to my exchange account at work using over the web access.
• Firefox, which was able to play streams posted in Ynet using a rather complicated configuration can not do it anymore. Interestingly, though, Konqueror can. I would suggest that both use the same plugins, but somehow only one of them succeeds in doing so.
  
• Kopete crashed when connecting to my MSN messenger account. This bug apparently was reported and fixed already, and it has to do with KDE 3.5.8. Use this link to download the fix and install it. At least now Kopete is working fine.

I am still not sure if it was a good idea to upgrade.
BTW, KDE 4.0, when it is finally released, promises to be a significant improvement to the user experience.
