RE: [expert] Finally! -- KDE2.0.1
I have a problem with packages updated from nebsllc.com. I downloaded the 010101 packages, and the rest were 1229 packages. Restarted system, KDE worked fine. Then for some reason the system totally locked up and the only hope was to press reset as I could not even get to a console window. After restart no user account is able to log in, only root is allowed. I get some error stating couldn't open/get (memory) /var/lock/console/ brian.. And some connection refused error. How do I get my useraccounts reenabled now.

Re: Re: [expert] Finally! -- KDE2.0.1
Hi Tom, I did some checking and as it turns out I've got KDE 2.1 installed already. I was sure at first but according to the packages I've got in my archive they're version 2.1beta1. Goodness, KDE has come such a long way since the RedHat 5.2 days...AWESOME! -- Mark "If you don't share your concepts and ideals, they end up being worthless," "Sharing is what makes them powerful."

The kpm packages are still there, but you need to do a menu-edit to get them back on the menu - Make sure you've configured everything you like that because using the menu editor will make kcontrol (the KDE Control centre) unusable (I forget the bug number but it's been reported to KDE's bug tracking system already). The only thing I miss is the kpm applet (which crashes on startup now). Hope this helps Andrew (PS scan your menus, from memory a few other old K-applications dissappear with the new packages as well, on the other hand -with 2.1 at least- some very nice things showed up :)

:) thanks...I guess I should have thought of that...but, it was late and I had been fighting with this thing for a while getting it to install the KDE packages.
