Hi,

I am using KDE2 on linux with networked home dirs with automounter and NIS+ 
authentication. I didn't expirience losses in autocompletion, but sometimes 
the whole desktop freezes, esp. if I check emails. I also suspected kmail, 
but I am not sure.

Did you already make a bug report?

Greetings,
eva
