maybe u can give it a try, why not? same like my case, and it's weird.. when i upgraded my box to 6.2-PRERELEASE, something weird happens.. i can't login to my KDE ( my KDE is up and running ) using my user+pass, surprisingly i add one more user+pass and it's can logged in! so I've decided to revert back to 6.1-RELEASE-p7 and it's back to normal! Maybe u should give it a try :) correct me if i'm wrong.. -- ___________________________________________________ Play 100s of games for FREE! http://games.mail.com _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
