The only difference is mine said couldn't open display. My display I'm guessing means X, now KDE worked fine prior to this . now I cant startx, it tries and then the system reboots. I tried to run /stand/sysinstall and then redo the Xconfig file, but the server cant start, I am putting the same in there that was prior to the attempt to install staroffice52. how can I get my system back to normal? Any takers on this one. Jk ----- Original Message ----- From: "Tim Joseph" To: "E. J.
