1 A google search led to a old gentoo post about kde 2.1.1 which says that
2 the /usr/bin/startkde line that says:
3
4 LD_BIND_NOW=true kdeinit +kcminit +knotify
5
6 should be changed to:
7
8 kdeinit +kcminit +knotify
9
10 ...this worked like a charm.
11
12 I installed from sources rc6-r11, so I dont know why the startkde was not
13 modified properly...and I dont know why more people didnt have this
14 problem....but if you do, that seems to be the fix.
