Hi
System: Dell OptiPlex GX270 (P4, i865 (with i810 graphics)), /home over NFS, SuSE 9.1, KDE 3.2.3 (happens also with 3.2.1, 3.3_beta2, 3.3.0). We never experienced this problem with SuSE 9.0 (KDE 3.1.4) using the same setup.
Problem description: KDM login works (using LDAP); KDE begins to startup and hangs at "Initializing devices" (the 3rd icon).
Workaround: Delete the following files and/or dirs:
- caches/temp-files (/tmp/kde*, /tmp/ksocket*, /var/tmp/kdecache* and all symlinks in .kde)
- .ICEauthority
- .Xauthority
- .dmrc
- .fonts*
- .kturnedon
- .local
- .mailcap
- .mcop
- .mime.types
- .qt
- .skel
- .kde
Sometimes it works without deleting ".kde", but not always.
We really need help in solving this one.
Thanks for help,
Daniel
