Hi folks,
I did my updates a bit ago. I notice xorg and a lot of friends were
updated. The update went fine as far as it compiled and installed
fine. I did my config updates and such as well. To make sure
everything stayed sane, I logged out of KDE, then went to single user
mode and back to default. I figured this was a sure way to restart all
the services that would be upgraded.
When kdm came back up, no keyboard, no mouse nothing. So I used the
trusty sysreq keys to get back to a console. Now I'm trying to roll
back to the older version that I was using before the upgrade. As most
of you know, I have hal disabled and I confirmed that it is indeed still
disabled. I masked mesa and xorg back to the old version. Now they
won't compile. I get errors like this:
config.status: executing depfiles commands
config.status: executing libtool commands

There is my wish list. If I can get the new xorg stuff working, that is
cool. If no one else is having trouble with them and it is my hardware
or something then getting the old version to compile and install would
be fine too.
Anyone have a clue how to get something to work here?
BTW, if I log into KDE with the new packages, I can log in once but when
I log out of KDE, the screen goes black and nothing happens. Even the
sysreq keys do nothing. Reset button is all that works.
Thoughts? I need a hammer?
