+Probably would have worked, if you waited longer. It's processing all of the
+rpm triggers from the updated files, and removing the old versions of the
+packages from the system.
+
+On an upgrade of around 2200 packages, on my old i586 system, that delay
+is almost 20 minutes.
+
+&gt;<i> Didn't work. Finally had to do an install. First problem was the
+</I>&gt;<i> thunderbird icon. After installing the program I copied the icon from
+</I>&gt;<i> the list of programs to the desktop. The icon is now hidden behind the
+</I>&gt;<i> trash icon and I can not move or delete the trash icon to get to the
+</I>&gt;<i> thunderbird icon. I just rt clicked on the desktop and did an icon sort
+</I>&gt;<i> and managed to get thunderbird out. There is now an icon behind trash
+</I>&gt;<i> that I don't use very much. I will now have to reinstall some programs
+</I>&gt;<i> that I used in mageia 1.
+</I>
+I've encountered similar problems in the past. It seems to be caused by
+mixing regular desktop icons and widgets in kde4. I move things like the
+trash widget to the lower right, and then lock the widgets.
