Hi Steven I also had a problem similar, in the end i had to remove all packages and install them again. the problem comes in when the version2 studio, conflicts with the version 3 libs. if you do a pkg_info |grep kde do you see two versions of kdelibs? thats what happened to me Hope this helps Ian Barnes ------------------------- BOFH - Mom's Pharmacies Email - ian@cerebellum.za.net ------------------------- -----Original Message----- From: owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org [mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org]On Behalf Of Steven Shen Sent: 31 July 2002 01:10 To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: !!! Urgent !!! save my kde. freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Dear Sir: I have FreeBSD release 4.6 working in my PC. The KDE (3.0.1 ? I forgot the exact version) coming with this release works well. But after I install the kde-studio 2.0.0 package, the disaster occurs. I cannot start kde again. The X window seems still working. The symptom now is like this: After type #startx The X window occurs with white screen, and give a message "Couldn't start ksmserver. Check your installation." The only action I can choose is a button <okay>. Then I press the button. Then return to the console (command prompt screen). # So I think it may be because of the installation of kde-studio 2.0.0 package. For some files do not come from the FreeBSD release 4.6 CD. These files are downloaded by myself. They may have some overwriting or conflict with the KDE. These files are: fam-2.6.8.tgz, freetype2-2.1.1.tgz, kdelibs-2.2.2_3.tgz, kdestudio-2.0.0.tgz, libiconv-1.8.tgz, libxml2-2.4.22_1.tgz, libxslt-1.0.18.tgz, Mesa-3.4.2_2.tgz, png-1.2.3.tgz, qt-2.3.1_2.tgz. #uname -a FreeBSD 4.6-RELEASE FreeBSD 4.6-RELEASE #0: Sat Jul 13 22:46:43 NZST 2002 root@:/usr/src/sys/compile/SOUNDKERN i386 # How can I solve this problem? I want my kde to come back working. I have so much things need to use it. And a re-installation of FreeBSD system is too too troublesoum, because I have lots of additional software and works files installed in the system. Could you please give me help? I will be so much thankful if you can save my situation! Regards.
