I had the same problem with PATH and X11R6. It is msec related. Look for *.rpmnew in /etc/profile.d and replace old files with rpmnew files. Always check *.rpmnew files when updating RPMS. RPM try to be conservative and does not replace user configuration files in general. But this can be a

That was it! Thanks! I also agree that there should be a console/log for rpmdrake. The logging should be a default and the console an option. --- pascal [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I had the same problem with PATH and X11R6. It is msec related. Look for *.rpmnew in /etc/profile.d and replace

that worked... :-} the question is still what failed and how should it be fixed? I suspect it might be a msec issue... but I am at msec 1 and was at msec 3. I believe that 1 is pretty low security although I am not sure. The reason I suspect msec is that I noticed an area where it set

for some reason I can no longer access kde with users. I get the dcopserver error. It works fine with root. I even uninstalled kde and qt and reinstalled because of the png issue. Also, when I try to startx as user (works in root) I get the following message: [sczjd@sidereal sczjd]$ startx
