Well, I'm not sure of your KDE versus /dev/dsp issues, so I'll |
| 16 |
remind you about checking rc.conf. It change a while back, but |
| 17 |
mine still has these settings: |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
DISPLAYMANAGER="kdm" |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
SESSION="kde-3.4.1" |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
The system boots into KDE just fine. I'm not sure if the SESSION |
| 24 |
setting in rc.conf is deprecated now or not.... |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
Before running 'env-update && source /etc/profile && etc-update' |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
I look at the proposed list of updates to config files that |
| 29 |
etc-update wants to perform. If I have a question about the |
| 30 |
files to be updated, I make a backup of the file with the current |
| 31 |
date appended. That way, you can recover config files |
| 32 |
or look at them over time to see how they have changed. |
| 33 |
/etc/rc.conf is a good example.... |
