I installed a bunch of packages including a number with failed dependencies. Among the packages that installed was qt3-3.0.0-0.beta4.1.i386.rpm. Now when I try to log in using KDE as my desktop I get a message that it can't start kdeinit.
When I log in using the Gnome desktop and then try to run kdeinit I get the following message:
I just removed the package mentioned in my previous post and still cannot log in using KDE as my desktop (an error box comes up telling me to check my installation).
However, when I type kdeinit into a terminal window in Gnome I now get the following changed message:
[root@localhost dad]# kdeinit
kdeinit: error while loading shared libraries: libqt-mt.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[root@localhost dad]#
