As I suspected... I am not surprised to see that type of error with
older versions of libart.

The error is caused by a function, which is not available in Qt 3.0.5.

Fixes:

Option 1) Get current CVS, which is *very* stable and has new support
for creating tables YAY!... All the table features are not yet complete,
but what is there works ;) Franz changed this function to work with Qt
3.0.5.

Option 2) Upgrade to a newer version of Qt. Rex Dieter, who runs the
kde-redhat sourceforge does a fine job of repackaging newer versions of
Qt and KDE for older RH distros. I would be pretty comfortable upgrading
all of KDE/Qt from there. 

I ran his version of KDE 3.1.4 on RH8/RH9 for a *long* time and found it
less troublesome than the RH versions. The KDE/Qt packages in Fedora are
less messaged than earlier versions and have been great, especially the
latest KDE 3.2.1/Qt 3.3.1 packages.

You getting close...

Cheers,
Peter
