Hello, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
MY gentoo laptop has been working fine for years.... However, now |
| 4 |
upon login |
| 5 |
(of any user) it hangs. SSh into the machine and I see that |
| 6 |
xrdb is hung. Killing |
| 7 |
off the process allows the kde login apps to complete and |
| 8 |
everything else is |
| 9 |
normal. I have re-emerged kdebase but this does not fix the |
| 10 |
problem. xrdb is |
| 11 |
not even installed. I had this problem a while back, so I just |
| 12 |
upgraded everything |
| 13 |
and recompile half of the apps on the machine and it went away. |
| 14 |
This is very |
| 15 |
annoying. Any idea how to track down the culprit and fix this |
| 16 |
ghost, permanently? |

When I look at '/usr/kde/3.4/share/config/kdm/kdmrc' |
| 20 |
<snip> |
| 21 |
# Specify a file with X-resources for the greeter, chooser and background. |
| 22 |
# The KDE frontend does not use this file, so you do not need it unless you |
| 23 |
# use another background generator than krootimage. |
| 24 |
# Default is "" |
| 25 |
#Resources= |
| 26 |
# The xrdb program to use to read the above specified recources. |
| 27 |
# Subject to word splitting. |
| 28 |
# Default is "/usr/bin/xrdb" |
| 29 |
#Xrdb= |
| 30 |
# A program to run before the greeter is shown. Can be used to start an |
| 31 |
# xconsole or an alternative background generator. Subject to word splitting. |
| 32 |
# Default is "" |
| 33 |
Setup=/usr/kde/3.4/share/config/kdm/Xsetup |
| 34 |
# A program to run before a user session starts. Subject to word splitting. |
| 35 |
# Default is "" |
| 36 |
Startup=/usr/kde/3.4/share/config/kdm/Xstartup |
| 37 |
<end snip> |

All looks fine.... |

Ideas? |
