I have been having sooooooo many problems upgrading to
KDE 2.1.1 from KDE 2.0.1 running under LM 7.2 .. I
have tried every single installation instruction that
someone has posted, and none of them work (even KDE's
instructions!) .. i even uninstalled KDE 2.0.1 and
then tried to install 2.1.1, and still get dependency
errors. And when I install the RPM's, I have to use
the --nodeps option, regardless. Everything seems to
work fine, but when I reboot, the graphical logon
screen for KDE starts to appear, then disappears, and
I'm stuck at the console. Can anyone help? This is
getting to be VERY frustrating!!
