Hi, starting I wanted to update the system, I did an emerge -u system first which worked just fine. Then I tried emerge -u world, I had some problems Thread. I unmerged the blocking package and emerge -u world. I got no errors.
Then I etc-update'ed, but there was a message like "kde config needs updating". I first etc-updated and didn't update the kde config.
Now I'm a little lost here, starting I don't get the normal kdm screen, KDE doesn't start either.
In /usr/kde/3.1/share/config/kdm I found the following README file.

The configuration files in this directory were automatically generated.
As the used algorithms are pretty dumb, the configuration may be broken.
This configuration consists of the following files:
- /usr/kde/3.1/share/config/kdm/kdmrc
- /usr/kde/3.1/share/config/kdm/Xservers
- /usr/kde/3.1/share/config/kdm/Xaccess
- /usr/kde/3.1/share/config/kdm/Xresources
- /etc/X11/xdm/Xsetup_0
- /usr/kde/3.1/share/config/kdm/Xstartup
- /usr/kde/3.1/share/config/kdm/Xreset
- /usr/kde/3.1/share/config/kdm/Xsession
- /usr/kde/3.1/share/config/kdm/backgroundrc
This configuration was derived from the following files:
- /usr/kde/3.1/share/config/kdm/kdmrc
- /usr/kde/3.1/share/config/kdm/Xaccess
- /etc/X11/xdm/Xresources
- /usr/kde/3.1/share/config/kdm/Xstartup
- /usr/kde/3.1/share/config/kdm/Xreset
Have a look at the program <kdebase-sources>/kdm/kfrontend/genkdmconf
if you want to generate another configuration.

Well thats exactly what happened, the configuration is broken.
In /usr/kde/3.1/share/config all files were changed. Do I have to edit every single file? Do you have a better solution? |
