34 you have added your user to the wheel group in /etc/groups?
35 That allways worked.
36
37 Yeah kde seems to ignore /etc/profile, I could not figure out how to
38 change this.
39 You said it worked in linux-from scratch. I will take a look at it (I
40 like that concept too).

42 Can you start netscape direct typing /usr/X11R6/bin/netscape? If not run
43 it with strace (dev-ustils/strace) and send me the log please.
44 This is the first time this problem occured.
45
46 bye achim~
