Re: Debian Woody, KDE startup does not go past "Peripherals" phase

Hi,
I have a similar experience with Woody on a laptop. If I turn off the
sound daemon <booting into a plain X session and then with an editor
modifying the KDE config files> I can then get into KDE. In the KDE
control center the aRts should be off. This did it for me. Interestingly
Knoppix 3.2 recognizes the sound card but fails on modprobe
"sound-slot-0".
You can go to the .ked/share/config/kcmartsrc file and set
"StartServer=false" <quotes are mine> and see if that helps...
cheers
I had thought about this course of action too.. I had disabled the sound
server. I checked the ~/.kde/share/config/kcmartsc file and it was
already set with StartServer=false. It still crashes at the same point.
Thank you for the suggesstion though. Anymore ideas.. this is just plain
weird.
