Hello all,

* updgraded from mandrake 8.1 to 8.2b
   (was: kernel 2.4.8-34 which worked great).
* upgrade went flawlessly, but during reboot,
   I get a message about "getgrnam" failling
   and then all the boot messages are garbled
   from then on (not using auroa)
* system continues to boot, but when I try to log
   into KDE it complains about interprocess
   communication and not being able to start
   the dcopserver.  Also, weirdly, the kdm login
   screen can't seem to find the pixmaps.
* sound, video, and ethernet work great
* system info:
   HP Pavilion N5270 (PIII 700)
* log files:
   surprisingly nothing interesting found
   in /var/log/syslog, I'm not sure where
   else to look.

I apologize if this topic has been covered before. I may be an idiot, 
but I was unable to find a way to search the mailing list archive. The 
"search this site" capability didn't search the mailing list but the 
entire mandrake website instead.  If anyone knows how I can search the 
mailing list please let me know!  Thanks!
