hello,
I am having some problems with startkde. I have looked through
the mailing list archive and the handbook and am still stuck. I set up
my machine to run KDE as per the handbook chapter on the X window
system. When I type startx KDE runs fine, when I type startkde I get
the following output;
xset: unable to open display ""
xsetroot: unable to open display ''
startkde: starting up
ksplash: cannot connect to X Server
kdeinit: aborting. $DISPLAY ot set
Warning: Connect() failed: :no such file or directory
ksmserver: cannot connect to X server
startkde: shutting down...
warning: connect() failed: :no such file or directory
Error: Can't contact kdeinit!
startkde: running shutdown scripts
startkde: done
When I run kdm the login screen loads but when I log in nothing
happens, The login screen is just loaded again. I think That this may
have somthing to do with startkde not working. Any help would be great
as I can't figure out whats going wrong.
Thanks
Brett
