I had a friend who had a problem with Akonadi also, although it was
failing with MySQL and dbus. For whatever reason, he ran
"mysql_upgrade", rebooted the system and the problem went away. Perhaps
it was just a coincidence. In any event, he does not have a
"polkitd_enable" statement in the rc.conf file, nor a "local_startup"
one either.

Do you want to boot into a graphical login screen or start KDE from the command line. To start from the command line you need to replace the window manager line in ~/.xinitrc with: startkde or if you don't have ~/.xinitrc creating it with that line. Now: % startx should start up KDE To start a graphical X windows login at boot up the easiest is to change 'off' to 'on' in the line: ttyv8 "/usr/X11R6/bin/xdm -nodaemon" xterm off secure which starts the standard xdm display manager and login interface. With this you'll need to inform xdm which windows-manager/desktop to use bye creating a file ~/.xsession containing say: #!/bin/sh startkde You should make this file executable (chmod +x .xsession). % man xdm will explain. Both .xinitrc and .xsession can be used to also perform some customisation eg setting PATH, setting modmap, etc. KDE also offers a kde specific replacement for xdm but this to me seems the wrong way to go. Other users may want to run a different windows-manager/desktop which they can easily do using their own .xsession file with xdm. Besides xdm has standard unix style documentation (man page) which seems to be frowned upon by the kde organisation. For sure once it is up KDE offers some browser based help which explains what you would have probably guessed anyway but stops short of answering any difficult questions.

Note, the exact syntax of these escapes me, try: where kdm man kdm Also note, if you've installed user accounts with uids below 1000, I believe kde will not allow you to log in until you've edited the kdm config file, which I cannot recall where that lives. man kdm should answer that. -- -- ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Re: KDE on FreeBSD 5.3
Ok, that's simple, kde is a system which use client - server mode to communicate between each application. it use the hostname to know where to listen and to know where to ask question. Well, if you set a hostname without any real sense, like "vincent" for example, it will try to resolv it, in order to know what is you local ip. Well, I don't know why kde don't use localhost or 127.0.0.1 despite of hostname but is like that. If you don't put your hostname in your hosts file, the resolv could be very long ... and it could failed. But if it exist in hosts file, kde ask it, and the system answer immediatly. The system go on ! ok, see ya perhaps kde developer could give a better explanation. ciao Le Sat, Mar 26, 2005 at 04:24:44PM +, Rhys Campbell a écrit: > From: "Rhys Campbell" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: KDE on FreeBSD 5.3 > Date: Sat, 26 Mar 2005 16:24:44 + > > Merci Vincent, > > rc.conf was fine but added what you said to the hosts file. > After a reboot apps started up very quickly.

Hi, perhaps you have a problem with you host.

The K menu is also displayed with speed it's just that any application seems to take several minutes to open. I'm fairly new to *nix so maybe I've missed something obvious.
