Well, I'm certainly not an authority here, but based on your comment, |
| 27 |
I do recall that when I did a recent update (either the emerge of Open |
| 28 |
Office 2.0 or the upgrade of MySQL), one of them changed some files |
| 29 |
that were related to X and QT (sorry, this isn't a very good |
| 30 |
description - I just saw the listing go by on the screen). At the end |
| 31 |
of the emerge, I got told that some configuration files in /etc had |
| 32 |
changed and what to do to find out out the files were. When I ran |
| 33 |
etc-update, it then gave me 3 choices regarding what to do -1, -3, and |
| 34 |
- -5. I chose the -3 options, which replaces the config files. |
| 35 |
|
| 36 |
However, even knowing this, and surmising that this might be the |
| 37 |
problem, I have no idea what to do to correct it. |
