hello! a fix for (console|policy)kit related issues was committed two weeks ago. you need to upgrade your kde, and yes, you need to use kdm or gdm to use policykit (there is a howto on http://wiki.freebsd.org/KDE4 - at least i guess... the wiki doesn't work at the moment) -- Alberto Villa, FreeBSD committer <avi...@freebsd.org> http://people.FreeBSD.org/~avilla _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
