Kent,Thanks for that info however I completely removes all ports on this last upgrade. I cvsup'd all source and ports... I have been running KDE3 and XFree86-4 for a very long time now with no problems. This problem here just started 2 days ago when I rebuilt everything.
No, I just rebuilt 3 machines and didn't have any problems. I ended up running -rpuf on portupgrade a number of times before kde-3.0.4 was fully linked to all of the new mods. It seemed like there were new versions of everything and a -Rpuf would have been better :). There were too many ports at the same level as kde-3 and I thought moving up the tree towards kde was better than working the other way.Any more suggestions?
I thought there was an easier way but never saw one. The builds were done on AMD 1600-2000 class machines and it never interfered with anything else.

I subscribed to freebsd-questions and now resent this... later Michael Hello, Has anyone came across this error and know how to fix it?It always occured on my machines when I mixed bag kde-3 and XFree86. If you are upgrading from major levels, it works better if you remove them first and then upgrade. Kde-3 doesn't work with XFree86-3.x.x. It is just the initial install where this happens. I think XFree86-4 stores stuff in different areas. For example, you need to rename /etc/XF86Config to something else and then configure version 4. Kent.
