Yeah it was already pointed out to me that I must have compiled under
2.6.17-amd64 instead of booting into 2.6.18-amd64 first and then running
the m-a stuff. Lots of steps, boy my butt is getting tired.
Anyway, now I'm up against more missing executables in /usr/bin so I removed
the unstable lines from sources.list and ran:
dpkg -l | grep ii | cut -d " " -f 3 | xargs -n 1 apt-get --reinstall install
to brute force rebuild all the missing binaries/symlinks I deleted from
/usr/bin last week.
So far I've added 20 new executables I had previously missed 1884 --> 1904
on a 'ls /usr/bin | wc'.
How about: grep -l '/usr/bin' /var/lib/dpkg/info/*.list |sed -e 's/.list$//'
That should list which packages should have files in /usr/bin, rather
than every package installed (many of which do not have files in
/usr/bin at all).

Ok ran that a few more times and I don't seem to see any new executables getting
added to /usr/bin.
Fixed the font path in /etc/X11/xorg.conf from:
# FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/:unscaled"
to:
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/X11/misc/:unscaled"
Added a symlink for the X-server executable so gdm/kdm could find it:
ln -s /usr/bin/Xorg /usr/bin/X
And X seems to be working, ie have a working graphical login and graphical
screen and pointer but
once kde comes up I have no icons just a blank screen and a pointer....seem to
have lost my
window manager.
hgh.
