Perhaps there's also a local firewall setup to blame, but it shouldn't really be able to interfere once you completely disabled ipv6 support in the kernel as you said you did. Are you sure you haven't accidentally put ipv6_enable="YES" into /etc/rc.conf? > Here is what I did to try to fix it: > checked and edited all the config files (inetd.conf, resolve.conf) > no change > > Looked for the infamous 99kde-env file that is supposed to have some kind > of ENABLE_IPV6_no="1" line in it, and it's not in 5.3... You probably mean KDE_NO_IPV6=1. That's an environment variable you can set before running startkde (or from a script with an .sh extension in $HOME/env or /usr/local/env), which will cause KDE (and all KDE components) to not attempt any ipv6 operations. -- ,_, | Michael Nottebrock | lofi@freebsd.org (/^ ^\) | FreeBSD - The Power to Serve | http://www.freebsd.org \u/ | K Desktop Environment on FreeBSD | http://freebsd.kde.org [-- Attachment #2 --] -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.0 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQBB2ZubXhc68WspdLARAl8OAJ4oCHLsPZR5z91iV3x19CFwFtfh0QCgjAr8 11+vutf2x6tF7hwGjQy7d7I= =RnzN -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----home | help
