I've also tried creating a completely new user. With a new user or no ~/.kde files kicker crashes on startup and I get no bar at the bottom. With my current ~/.kde* files the bar starts, but it's applets like the clock or the thing that shows minimized apps doesn't work. > And of 'grep kde /var/lib/portage/world | sort' ? # grep kde /var/lib/portage/world | sort kde-base/arts kde-base/kde-env kde-base/kde-meta kde-base/kdebase-meta kde-base/kdelibs kde-base/konqueror # > And of 'grep kde /etc/env.d/*' ? # grep kde /etc/env.d/* /etc/env.d/46kdepaths-3.4:PATH=/usr/kde/3.4/bin /etc/env.d/46kdepaths-3.4:ROOTPATH=/usr/kde/3.4/sbin:/usr/kde/3.4/bin /etc/env.d/46kdepaths-3.4:LDPATH=/usr/kde/3.4/lib /etc/env.d/46kdepaths-3.4:CONFIG_PROTECT="/usr/kde/3.4/share/config /usr/kde/3.4/env /usr/kde/3.4/shutdown" /etc/env.d/47kdepaths-3.3.1:PATH=/usr/kde/3.3/bin /etc/env.d/47kdepaths-3.3.1:ROOTPATH=/usr/kde/3.3/sbin:/usr/kde/3.3/bin /etc/env.d/47kdepaths-3.3.1:LDPATH=/usr/kde/3.3/lib /etc/env.d/47kdepaths-3.3.1:CONFIG_PROTECT="/usr/kde/3.3/share/config /usr/kde/3.3/env /usr/kde/3.3/shutdown" /etc/env.d/48kdepaths-3.2.3:PATH=/usr/kde/3.2/bin /etc/env.d/48kdepaths-3.2.3:ROOTPATH=/usr/kde/3.2/sbin:/usr/kde/3.2/bin /etc/env.d/48kdepaths-3.2.3:LDPATH=/usr/kde/3.2/lib /etc/env.d/48kdepaths-3.2.3:CONFIG_PROTECT=/usr/kde/3.2/share/config /etc/env.d/49kdepaths-3.1.5:PATH=/usr/kde/3.1/bin /etc/env.d/49kdepaths-3.1.5:ROOTPATH=/usr/kde/3.1/sbin:/usr/kde/3.1/bin /etc/env.d/49kdepaths-3.1.5:LDPATH=/usr/kde/3.1/lib /etc/env.d/49kdepaths-3.1.5:CONFIG_PROTECT=/usr/kde/3.1/share/config /etc/env.d/56kdedir-3.1.5:KDEDIR=/usr/kde/3.1 /etc/env.d/57kdedir-3.2.3:KDEDIR=/usr/kde/3.2 /etc/env.d/65kdelibs-3.1:PATH=/usr/kde/3.1/bin /etc/env.d/65kdelibs-3.1:ROOTPATH=/usr/kde/3.1/bin /etc/env.d/65kdelibs-3.1:LDPATH=/usr/kde/3.1/lib /etc/env.d/65kdelibs-3.1:KDEDIRS=/usr/kde/3.1 /etc/env.d/65kdelibs-3.1:CONFIG_PROTECT=/usr/kde/3.1/share/config # > > Does Konqueror work? Konqueror is a good example. I just emerged konqueror, to try to fix it, and it didn't fix it (and broke some other stuff, see below). When I run Konqueror it runs but first I get: "There was an error loading the module About-Page for Konqueror. The diagnostics is: /usr/kde/3.1/lib/kde3/konq_aboutpage.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" I suspect that if I could figure out why konqueror (and other apps) seem to still want to point to 3.1 libraries I could get to the bottom of my problems. > KMail?

Actually that emerge of konqueror I did last night really hosed some stuff up and a bunch of kde packages went away (don't ask me why) and kde crashed, so I'm re-emerging kdebase right now and can't check but I will get back to you. In general though, my system is very up to date. It was a little out of date, but in the process of trying to fix this I sync'd and emerged most everything that needed it. > Do you still have an old python-2.2* installed?
