Hmmmm, I might be making progress on my random crashes. I asked earlier about doing emerge -e kde and was thinking about going a head with that but kdelibs was blocking glibc. I was still in the mood to give it a go so I did # emerge -C kdelibs This, of course rendered kde useless. Rather than go the whole rebuild route I then rebuilt kdelibs. I restarted kde about 10 hours ago and so far so good. My major problem now is that it seems the only way I can start kde since installing windowmaker it to start kdm as root and log in to a kde session from there. Can I simply rename or move my ~/.xinitrc and then $ $ startx to start kde? startkde returns DISPLAY errors
OK, I figured out that if I edit ~/.xinitrc and comment
exec wmaker
and add the line
exec startkde
$ startx
starts kde
I probably should have actually read the .xinitrc file before asking stupid questions
Have you tried modifying the XSESSION variable in /etc/rc.conf?
