thanks for the clues on urpmi, went smoothly its nearly done, and xfs starts and stops properly xserver now only is stopped by a failing dcopserver the error message is a red or blue screen (yep, KDE has its own BSOD!) with a dialog box: could not read connection list /root/DCOPserver_localhost.localdomain_:0 please check that DCOPserver is running
running dcopserver from /usr/bin returned: Aborting. $DISPLAY is not set. http://mobile.yahoo.com.au - Yahoo! Messenger for SMS - Always be connected to your Messenger Friends -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
