Can you bring up an x session other than KDE?

 if so, try deleting everything in /tmp (especially the ksocket and mcop 
dirs). Also delete any symlinks to those sockets in your .kde directory.

That usually fixes the problem when I have it.

Yes, it just had a single line about loosing connection to X server.

Are there any log files I could submit to the list for your 
inspection that would be helpful?

KDE dies right in the beginning where it's trying to set up
"interprocess communications".  Makes me think that X is 
somehow the culprit here.

Do you have a .xsession-errors file in your home directory?

[newbie] Help! I've killed KDE.

2002-04-17 Thread Burrows, Scott

Hey all,

On my MD 8.2 system while I was attempting to get my internet connection
working
the speaker started a continuously repeating system beep.
It was as if I was holding down the delete key when there was nothing there 
to delete.

The system hung when I attempted to reboot it.  I powered it down.

Now KDE crashes with a SIGSEGV error.

I deleted my .kde folder since this was a newish install.

This did not help I still cannot bring KDE back up.  It crashes each time.

What can I do to get KDE running again?

Thanks

Scott Burrows
