Ok, that's simple, kde is a system which use client - server mode to communicate between each application. it use the hostname to know where to listen and to know where to ask question. Well, if you set a hostname without any real sense, like "vincent" for example, it will try to resolv it, in order to know what is you local ip. Well, I don't know why kde don't use localhost or 127.0.0.1 despite of hostname but is like that. If you don't put your hostname in your hosts file, the resolv could be very long ... and it could failed. But if it exist in hosts file, kde ask it, and the system answer immediatly. The system go on ! ok, see ya perhaps kde developer could give a better explanation. ciao Le Sat, Mar 26, 2005 at 04:24:44PM +0000, Rhys Campbell a écrit: > From: "Rhys Campbell" <therhysmeister@hotmail.com> > To: vincent_bachelier@yahoo.fr > Subject: Re: KDE on FreeBSD 5.3 > Date: Sat, 26 Mar 2005 16:24:44 +0000 > > Merci Vincent, > > rc.conf was fine but added what you said to the hosts file. > After a reboot apps started up very quickly.

Reports are now written in four tenses: past tense, present tense, future tense, and pretense. Watch for novel uses of CONGRAM (CONtractor GRAMmer), defined by the imperfect past, the insufficient present, and the absolutely perfect future. -- Amrom Katz
