KDE 2.2.2 runs well compiled on Debian potato. Attached is a file of
notes I made to help me remember the options. The login manager does
not run since it requires some editing of the X startup files - which I
do not have the patience to deal with - so I just type startx at the
command line. Hope this helps.

Hi,
has anyone got running a self compiled kde 2.2.x on a potato machine?
I tried it out with ./configure --prefix=/usr/kde2.2.2 [...]
The kdelibs and kdebase compiled fine, but now I can't start it. I set
$KDEDIR to /usr/kde2.2.2 and wrote in $HOME/.xinitrc
"exec /usr/kde2.2.2/bin/startkde". Then I run startx and the splash appears.
But when kde "detects the connected devices" this button on the splash is
blinking very long time and after this the splash disappears. I can close the
xserver only with C-A-Del, then I see the error message:

Maybe a linking problem? I can't really get on with this.
Kde 2.1.2 from the debian packages works fine on my system.
What is wrong? Do I have a chance to run kde 2.2.x on debian potato, in
general?
Thanks a lot for your response in advance.
