  Which package contains kdeinit4?


 kde-base/kdelibs

Thanks!  ~50 packages altogether, which took just over an hour to
emerge.  Sadly, it didn't help get xfce running.  I seem to have a hard
segfault in xfce4-session.  That's after purging xfce and re-emerging,
too.

That's two weekends I've been without X.  I don't know what I'm going to
do, right now.  Might even try KDE, just to get some sort of working X.

Thanks!  Having kdeinit4 hasn't helped me get running, unfortunately.

You could do worse, but you could also try Fluxbox,
which is very simple  configurable  works with KDE  other apps.
I start X with 'startx'  have in  ~/.xinitrc 

  xscreensaver 
  kdeinit 
  startfluxbox

  No such luck, as yet.  I still get these messages when trying to startx:

 xfce4-session: GNOME compatibility is enabled and gnome-keyring-daemon 
  is found on the system. Skipping gpg/ssh-agent startup.
 env: kdeinit4: No such file or directory
 env: qdbus: No such file or directory

  .  Somehow, the remnants of a KDE program are hanging around somewhere.
  I've no idea what qdbus is, or where I've got it configured.


I'm getting a bit weary with this issue.  Thanks for the help, so far.  I
spent a lot of Sunday evening trying to locate executables/libraries
which still invoke kdeinit4 and qdbus.  To no avail.

Next bright idea: why don't I emerge these two binaries again?  This will
surely help me locate the offending binaries, and even if it doesn't,
might get my X working again as a workaround.

 qdbus comes from qtdbus, it was pulled in by KDE way back when.

I've emerged qtdbus, and the qdbus error message has gone.  But I can't
for the life of me locate the package containing kdeinit4.  I've looked
through /usr/portage/kde-base/, but can't identify the KDE base package I
need.  equery only works on already emerged packages.

Which package contains kdeinit4?

 $ equery belongs /usr/bin/qdbus
  * Searching for /usr/bin/qdbus ...
 dev-qt/qtdbus-4.8.5 (/usr/bin/qdbus)

 It's being launched because you have a KDE app somewhere in your startup
 scripts (or possibly kdeinit4 itself)

 How do you start X? A display manager or using startx?
 What are the contents of the relevant files?

startx.  My .xinitrc contains solely exec startxfce4.
