I just installed FreeBSD 5.4, and I configured KDE and related configurations according with the handbook. My .xinitrc file contains only the line: "echo "exec startkde"". When I type "startx" everything seems to be well, but KDE doesn't start. There are no errors reported or anything pointing to the problem, except a line at the end which reads: xauth: (argv):1: bad display name "Monique.gateway.2wire.net:0" in "remove" command I am behind a wireless modem-router with domain name "gateway.2wire.net". I do not know what command "remove" is referred here or where it occurs, and how to fix it. No entry like this in "xorg.conf". I will appreciate any help. Teilhard.
