Hi,
sorry to bother you with this question (I remember that it has been asked and probably answered):
self built up-to-date kde. i tried both starting Apple's X11 or "startx" and then "startkde".
<AKH> By this, do you mean that you've started X11 (startx or the icon do the same thing) and then run "startkde" from a terminal window or the menubar (either one)?
exactely.
my .xinitrc is a copy of the system wide xinitrc, prepended with the line "source /sw/bin/init.sh" after the comments.
I thought this was right.
<AKH> This is OK. What I'm wondering about, since I've seen other messages about this problem, is if this is an issue with the quartz-wm window manager and KDE? If the last line of your .xinitrc looks like
quartz-wm
(or something similar), can you comment it out, and add the following lines, as shown below?
# quartz-wm quartz-wm --only-proxy exec startkde
This will call quartz-wm's integration with Aqua, but use KDE's built in window manager. Try that and see if you get the left button again.
Another problem:
When I switched to panther i also switched the shell to bash, believing Apple had goood reasons to do so. I am still not satisfied with bash.
It seems that X11 shells and Terminal shells use different rc-files.
<AKH> This may well be true.
Also my tcsh.rc, dating back to the early nineties, had so many adjustments i miss under bash.
<AKH> I don't see any reason why not to switch back to tcsh. Apple probably did it because Linux distros do it.
regards kp
the first window that appears is an error/warning from arts that sound is not configured.
i can click this window away.
from then on, KDE responds to no mouse clicks, e.g. to click away the tip-of-the-day window.
My mouse is a Logitech 3-button mouse with scroll-wheel.
The left button seems to not be recognized by KDE. The right button (context menus?) works.
Whats wrong? What do I have to rebuild/configure?
