Re: KDE 2.1.1 + XFree86 4.0.3 + Matrox G450
Your problem is that you installed libssl096. I would be willing to bet
dollars to donutholes that you have ssh installed, and that startx is dying
while trying to start the ssh-agent. If you run ssh from the command line it
will come back with an error about mismatching libssl's. The quick work
around is to uninstall ssh. The correct workaround is finding the ssh
packages that work with that libssl. I don't recall where you get those from
:-) Either way, that's your problem.
