I stupidly posted this on the tail of another thread, so it sank without trace. Excuse the repetition, then.
I managed to create some mysterious freeze-up when restarting KDE (Konqueror looking for a now-not-mounted partition that I had been looking at in the previous session). This meant that I had to close down KDE (should that be 'Klose down'?) by logging on from another machine and killing stuff until it klosed. I made many attempts, trying to find the right thing to remove to prevent the old session being reconstructed, and having to kill a stack of processes remotely each time. Every time it completed loading, reconstituted the session and froze. I even rebooted a couple of times. Even when I managed to get rid of Konqueror, the mouse remained frozen in KDE. I idly tried a reboot into the old RedHat system, and it worked to my surprise. Of course, sharing the /home partition was never a great idea... It did get rid of the session data that caused the mouse to freeze up, but it got rid of a lot else too: most of the menus, and the taskbar. THe Redhat is running an older version of KDE, so no real surprise there. Now when I reboot into Debian, KDE starts, the CD and CDRW are mountable, but most of the kde configuration is screwed, and I have no tasks in the taskbar. Minimise anything and it is gone!. Anyone know how to re-constitute the KDE setup? I am running KDE 3.1.2 on a 2.4.21-xfs kernel. TIA -- richard -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
