Yes, the trouble is with the kde, I think that is with the dcop interface...

So far, I´ve been using fxce "kdeised", I run xfce as WM, and kmix, knotes and gaim, Since those apps use the systemtray interface, fxce display then properly, and I no longer had this "Black screen of coma"

I'm from the slackware planet, So, I was used to build a lot of my installed programs. Using the gcc provided with YDL 4.0, I was unable to build a lot of c++ programs, as amarok, I belive lastest verions of umbrello and kopete... Times has changed. Now I don´t want to "build anything", I like to have it working asap :)

So, amarok is prebuilded with YDL 4.1?

Sorry about the lack of information about my last message, I was in a hurry..

YDL is using Xfree or Xorg?

As far I can see, still no dualhead support... I have a almost dualhead working configuration... Auxiliar output works ok when I use it, but the LCD shows dancing/dazzling vertical lines... But, it works for me...

Thanks Paul for giving a better explanation than me :)


BTW: use xfce

I've been to the hardware page already. My iBook is the one with the 32 MB VRAM (ATI Mobility 7500 card) and is supported by both YDL 4.0.1 and 4.1 (currently running 4.0.1). The problem seems to be something inherent to KDE, as the research I've done suggests that Gnome has much fewer issues with laptop and awakening from sleep mode. Maybe I should change over to that WM in the future. Does YDL 4.0.1 and/or 4.1 awaken from sleep mode OK on desktop machines? Because I've only installed YDL on my iBook so far. There are definite problems with closing the lid (YDL doesn't sleep) as well as sleep mode (YDL does not awaken--but only when powered from the battery). The battery-saving mode seems to be the culprit.

Ok.  That's a little more information than what I saw before.
Perhaps a video issue?

If you go to the link I provided to Andres, and go to the kind of PB
you have and click upon Video information you would see the following:

Although the recommendations refer to YDL 4.1 you can try and check the
screen settings you are using; these settings may affect or change how
your PB behaves with the current version of YDL you use.  For greater
clarity and perhaps more informed info, it might be beneficial to
discuss the details with someone at Terra Soft.  I don't have that
version of PB, and I cannot recreate the difficulty you describe.

Good Luck ....
