Re: [gentoo-user] kde/gnome won't start with xfree 4.3.0-r3
Have you tried the kde or kde-devel mailing list? Maybe they could help you with that issue. How to subscribe is explained at www.kde.org. I don't think that kde is the problem. Not only the ksmserver crashes, but also the gnome session manager. When downgrading xfree, kde starts again. So there is probably something in xfree that causes the trouble. There are 2 more error messages when booting the system. I will post them this evening, I must go to work now. --Kees -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

Perhaps I will install gentoo from scratch when I have time.. This is not a proper solution. Just because one app doesn't work does not mean you should automatically re-install; this isnt [EMAIL PROTECTED] :) I know but nobody seems to have a solution for this problem :-/ I suggest that you use the full path to startkde (/usr/kde/3.1/bin/startkde) in your ~/.xinitrc. It does not matter how I start KDE, it always crashes. I tried your suggestion also :) KDE starts up, but as soon as it tries to restore the session, it crashes. In the console I can read 2 lines: Session Management error: Could not open network socket the rest is scrolled of the screen Perhaps that is en error I must solve?

In your home directory ( cd ~) execute the command: echo startkde .xinitrc (this will make X start KDE by default) Then startx and you should have KDE up and running ... assuming that it is installed.

Re: [gentoo-user] kde/gnome won't start with xfree 4.3.0-r3
KDE 3.1.x and Gnome 2.2.x won't launch from KDM into xfree 4.3.0-r3. The result in KDE is a 'ksmserver crashed' error; Gnome reports that it can't start. I've backed down to xfree 4.3.0-r2 and all seems to work just fine. In fact, KDE has never run better, and for the first time in my experience it's faster than wmaker. This is on a v 1.4 rc3 system. Anyone else getting these errors, or able to run the combination of kde + xfree 4.3.0-r3 successfully? It crashes when restoring sessions at my system. loading desktop - no problems but after that: restoring session.. 0%.. crash Any help is welcome --Kees -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
