I restart the power of the box and my linux said that the /dev/hda doesn't umount correctly and start fsck to check the / partition. In the test, the fsck found some errors in the inodes and correct them. BUT it tell´s me that in the directory /home/msequera (msequera was the active user when the machine goes down) the files .mcop and .mcoprc was bad if I want to clone them . I put 'y' and the process goes on until finish.

I don't understand what you did. Did you delete the msequera account and then do a 'useradd' to recreate the account?

If so, make sure that when you remove user msequera you also delete /home/msquera, if it isn't deleted. (or, if /home/msquera isn't deleted, besure that /home/msequera/.kde is deleted.)

I could be that files in /opt/kde2 have been corrupted or deleted. If you used an rpm file to install it use rpm -U to reinstall it with file replacement.

I would also use ReiserFS and/or ext3 (which also works on /boot where ReiserFS won't) to increase file security. I've been running ReiserFS since SuSE 6.4 and, although I have had only 3 or 4 crashes in the last 5 years, I have never lost any files or data.
