Can't Start KDE
I am running unstable and upgraded to the KDE 3.2. The packages I used are
located at the repository listed at DebianWiki,
i.e. deb http://people.debian.org/~ccheney/kde-3.2.0/ ./
deb http://people.debian.org/~bab/kde-3.2 ./
After a reboot of my machine, to ensure that kdm will start (I don't know how
to start kdm from a command line), I enter my user name and password. The
KDE desktop background pictures appears.
At that point, all loading of the KDE environment appears to stop. No dialog
with a progress bar appears nor other widgets. Mouseclicks cause no
reaction, either left, middle, or right (3-button mouse) and I don't know how
to proceed. I did a three-finger salute (ctrl-alt-backspace) and had to
enter twm to start a kmail session.
Needless to say, any help is most wecome. How do you start kdm from the
console?
