I installed Apple's X11 and it works fine. I'm trying to alternatively
run KDE. I change .xinitrc to exec startkde and, after the screen changes
then it dies. Could a patient soul direct me to step by step directions to
utilize KDE?

First you should post which version of OS X you are running, which
version of KDE you are running, and you installed it-- binary or source?
Did you try running KDE with another X server? Did it work? Did you look
in any log files for errors? What did they say?

	Sorry not to provide the information to help.

My system:
Apple X11 0.1
Mac OS X 10.2.3 (6G30)
Power Mac G4 (version = 2.0)
gcc (GCC) 3.1 20020420 (prerelease)
Package manager version: 0.11.1
Distribution version: 0.5.1.cvs
Developer Tools December 2002
bundle-kde-ssl 3.0.7-7 installed binaries
KDE worked previously with XDarwin.

What log files would provide information?

I had similar problems with kdebase and apple's X11. Compiling the version of kdebase3 in Fink 0.5a Stable worked but the resulting binaries failed to connect to the X Server, with the error that the authentication protocols could not be negotiated ( all protocols were refused ), this prevented DCOP from starting, and thence any KDE application which relied on it ( which is all of them as far as I'm aware ).

I'm afraid that I don't have a copy of the error message any more, I've subsequently enabled the unstable tree, run fink selfupdate-cvs and am in the process of building a new version ( of pretty much everything ).

If this works I'll let you know.
