Must be the flu. What I'm saying is that when I boot, the box tries, but cannot get to the graphical login (kdm3) and dumps me at the cli. I then cannot get kde going with startx (it gives the same results). If X is starting, then it is dying as soon as it starts. Strange?? vncserver/vncviewer will not even start kde. I get the error: "Could not start kdeinit. Check your installation." when I open the vncviewer window. What other logs might help? Thanks. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
