Hi folks,
On a fresh build of LFS-SVN and BLFS-SVN I've just gotten kdebase
installed. On trying to login via KDM all I see is squares in place of
every single character of text that should be on that screen. I'm

The Linux From Scratch community is pleased to announce the release of
LFS 6.1.1. This release includes fixes for all known errata since
LFS-6.1 was released 4 months ago.
You can read the book online at

Err, have you been following lfs-book at all? If so you'll have seen
there's been a reasonable amount of work done on the 6.1.1

I understand that. That's what the Errata is for. Until 6.1.1 is
released (if it is), this patch should probably appear there so people
don't continue to run into this problem. Not everybody builds SVN.
We (in this instance we = website project) accept patches :-)

OK, looks like it is the correct fix then:
