No console message, no log messages, nothing. I have to turn it off and back on. The strange part involves the work arounds that are independient of one another that I have found: Kernel compiled prior to around Sept. 9 works fine, zero problems with kde. Current Kernel and using xdm in place of kde, works fine. Now I try to keep my box clean of old libraries and did a portupgrade -Rruf of skype and kde with no changes and even that doesn't explain why an older kernel would work unless I had some old libraries around, I would assume and the working kernels aren't that old. To make it even more unusual I have 4 other machines showing the same symptoms. They are all AMD 32 bit w/ different motherboards and from 256M to 2M in memory. I don't have anything with an intel chip to test on. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated, I have no idea where else to look. Thanks, ed
