I upgraded my XFree86 to 4.4.0 since it claimed to have some improvements for my graphics controller. I decided to be ambitious and compile from source (and learned how to use CVS in the process). It seemed the installation went okay, except now something involving kdeinit is broken.
When I do "startx" at the command prompt, x starts and after a couple of seconds an error window pops up and says "Could not start kdeinit. Check your installation." And now my collection of questions: -What exactly does startx do? -How else can I start the x server? -What might be the problem with kdeinit? -How would I start a different window manager (gnome, pekwm, icewm, ...)? -What does startkde, startgnome and starticewm do? These are probably RTFM questions, but I can't seem to find the right manual. Until next time, I will be joyously messing with my computer using the CLI and browsing the web with links!
