What happened to my KDE 3.5.3? |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
The fonts are "gone" sorta -- at least to the point that makes KDE unusable. |
| 4 |
|

|
| 6 |
If I fire up a terminal, the window is black, but I can see that things |
| 7 |
are happening, as the cursor will move. but no text shows. if i do an |
| 8 |
'ls' for example, i can see something 'scrolling' as the bar on the |
| 9 |
right moves, but no text is rendered. highlighting all the text in the |
| 10 |
window will reveal red/blue/etc inverse areas which i assume are |
| 11 |
directories, tarballs, etc... |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
my clock applet is 'blank', but if i roll over it, i see the time in the |
| 14 |
bubble that pops up. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
most menus are blank, but I can see the underscore of where the hotkey |
| 17 |
would be. if I click on the menu, it 'blinks' very fast the text that |
| 18 |
should be there. |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
this is the same for buttons. they show up until i roll the mouse onto |
| 21 |
them, then the text vanishes but i see the underscore. |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
all the icons on my desktop are there, and the text under them is |
| 24 |
'black' (like the shadow text), but the white text that used to be over |
| 25 |
the black is gone. |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
firefox will show some text, then vanish, but if i drag/highlight all |
| 28 |
the text on the page, it comes back. |

Gnome works just fine -- in fact, that's how I'm typing this right now |
| 31 |
since KDE is hosed. |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
I did an emerge update on friday and all seemed well. |
| 34 |
|
| 35 |
i use an nVidia card and i purposefully did not do the xorg-7.1 as it |
| 36 |
was a blocker with nVidia drivers. |
| 37 |
|
| 38 |
gcc-3.4.5 |
| 39 |
xorg-7.0 |
| 40 |
nvidia-1.0.8762 |
| 41 |
kde-3.5.3 |
| 42 |
|
| 43 |
kde was working fine. i had rebooted and such after the upgrade from |
| 44 |
3.5.2 to verify. |
| 45 |
|
| 46 |
here are the last few things i emerged that could have any relevance: |

I read my /var/log/portage-logs and didn't notice anything that needed |
| 87 |
to be done? I also had done a revdep-rebuild but again nothing really |
| 88 |
that should effect this (mutisync and a few other peripheral apps). |
