From: Heiner To: Mark Evenson Cc: freebsd-gnats-submit@FreeBSD.org Subject: Re: misc/60512: launching X freezes CURRENT Date: Mon, 16 Feb 2004 12:58:30 +0100 After installing some new components (mainly kde stuff) the situation is worse here as well. startx starts KDE but the only way to terminate it is to go to the controlling terminal and press ctrl-C. The normal kde exits freezes BSD completely. Even disabeling all drivers and upgrading to the latest Xfree-Server port version does not help. As "freeze" also kills the disk cache, all log file entries (if there are any) will not make it to the disk. Disabeling the soft updates might help here. I will try if I find some time. Heiner
