Subject:   Differences between ISO and GENERIC? (KDE broken)

I have a laptop running 4.5-RELEASE from the ISO images.  It couldn't talk
to my Linksys WAP, so I had to modify the driver and rebuild the kernel.  Now
it works great on the network, but I can't start KDE.  The behavior I see is
that it gets to "initializing Window Manager" and it hangs.  I get the same
behavior if I start it as root instead of a regular user.

The only change I made in the GENERIC config was the ident string.

Is this a known or obvious problem?  Does anyone know of a fix for it?  I'd
really like to be able to use X on my laptop.... ;-)

Regards,
Phil
