Ok, XFree86-4-Server it was. X started working after I reinstalled that one. Thanks. I guess problems will appear later on, but at least X is working right now and KDE don't seem to be broken. Hopefully after a few cvsup's I will be back were I started. > Restoring from backups sounds like a good idea. The other possibility > is to reinstall all programs you have. The latter sounds triesome. I remember how long time it took to compile OpenOffice and all of KDE, even om my 1200MHz machine. I will seriously look at the idea of wiping my labsystem and use that disk for backups instead. /andreas _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
