Hi,

Over the last couple of days I have applied the opensuse 10.3 updates as
notified by zypper. Three of theses updates have broken my login to KDE.
I was still able to login via a console screen.

These are the updates that caused the first problem. After the updates
were applied, when I tried to log into KDE, the screen went black and
then returned to the login screen.

libopenssl-devel 4476-0
libopenssl-devel 4560-0

The .xsession-errors file indicated an openssl version problem.
Unfortunately I don't have a copy of that file now.

The fix to this problem was to reinstall the original openssl packages
from the opensuse 10.3 dvd from the console using the following command.

rpm --oldpackage -Uvh openssl-0.9.8e-45.i586.rpm
libopenssl0_9_8-0.9.8e-45.i586.rpm openssl-certs-0.9.8e-45.i586.rpm
libopenssl-devel-0.9.8e-45.i586.rpm


The second problem occurred  when  I installed  the following 
x11-server  update. I was unable to move my mouse pointer or enter text
into the password field. I could still login via the text console.

This was the offending patch

xorg-x11-server  4595-0

The fix to this problem was to reinstall the original x11-server package
from the opensuse 10.3 dvd from the console using the following command.

rpm --oldpackage -Uvh xorg-x11-server-7.2-143.i586.rpm

I have been googling the problem but can't find any mention of this problem

I'm not sure if I have a problem with my install or if this is a known
issue. Is this the right place to be posting this issue?

Thanks.

Cheers, Barrie
