This did nothing for me except to lock up the X-window server completely.
Previously, kdm would at least start and not let me log in.
Now I have no X-Windows at all.
xinit also fails to work correctly.
Can anyone tell me if there is something in 'unstable' to attemp or, as
previously mentioned - where can I find version #6?
This is a nasty problem!
