If the problem was the permissions on /dev/null (per your other email today in the can't-start-kde thread), then you might want to backup your current ~/.kde4, and then move your old ~/.kde4 directory back into place, and see if kde still starts ok, and looks ok, and settings look ok, etc: and if all looks ok, then just go with that. That's what I'd do at this stage. Was konsole ok before, when you were running kde4, before the "can't-start-kde" issue? akh -- -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
