If you can run gnome; the problems does not come from xfree86 but from kde (a good idea to test to x server is to type X in console which start only X). I suggest you to remove all file which begin with .kde rm -rf .kde* in your home directory. This will delete all configuration files from kde. You can also try to start kde from root to see if it is not a permission problems. By the way, I have had sometimes to problems that kde freeze. Usually, there were not problems after rebooting the system. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
