I had a problem before Christmas which was exactly that : the problem was XFree86, not KDE. XFree86 4.0.1-7 worked, but all later versions of 4.0.1 (-8 to -11) did not. To see if it is the problem you have, make the following test : - Start in text mode, without X. - Type startx, let X start and then kill it with Ctrl-Alt-Backspace. - If you have the problem, xinit won't be able to kill the xserver. There will be an error message about it : "Xserver too slow to respond..." Because the xserver can't be killed, kdm cannot restart when logging out. The problem is solved with the available XFree86 4.0.2 packages. -- Thibaut Cousin email : [EMAIL PROTECTED] web : http://clrwww.in2p3.fr ------------------------------------------------------------------- Teach me passion for I fear it`s gone.
