Hmmm.... maybe you guys would know.... I've gone the same route as you. |
| 26 |
However, I've emerge 4.1.65. It compiles fine, installs, no problems. |
| 27 |
However... I normally start my gentoobox as rc 3. When I run startx, kde |
| 28 |
loads and looks quite wonderful, but just as the desktop grabs the mouse... |
| 29 |
it locks up. The lockup is so complete, I can't switch to a console and have |
| 30 |
to reboot... |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
Does anyone have a suggestion? Kde 4,0 actually worked ok. kde4.05 and greater |
| 33 |
have been a wash for me. No luck what so ever. Total and complete lockup. |
| 34 |
|
| 35 |
Things I've done: tried 4.1, tried 4.1.66, made sure evdev is loaded... the |
| 36 |
logs show that X dies immediately... no output... just bang... |
| 37 |
|
| 38 |
Now running 3.5.10 with no problems. But I'd really, really like to get a |
| 39 |
current kde up and running. |
