Does that error ring a bell with
anybody?
Here's the situation: I've got a pretty fresh
installation of Debian. I installed it from a 2.2r3 CD and then upgraded to
"unstable". I also pointed apt to the geniussystems site and got
KDE3.
The problem is that I can't get KDE come up
completely. X starts fine, then I get the KDE splash screen with the half-dozen
startup icons along the bottom of the splash. It gets to the third one (the
mouse), and then I get dumped back to the console (error message follows). Right
before X terminates, I catch a brief glimpse of some kind of alert window that
pops up in the middle of the screen over the splash screen. It seems to have
just one button and it also has a checkbox... but that's all I'm able to make
out before the screen switches back to the text console.
The system works fine with Fvwm95, twm, and
WindowMaker. If I start up with one of those WM's and then try to *switch* to
KDE, I get the same result. Also, this happens if
I'm root or a plain user.
Anybody have any ideas before I try to completely
purge and re-install?
