make install clean</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT><FONT face=Arial
size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>When I type in startx I've finding it jumps to
some type of screen with just a shell running. If I type: startkde in there,
KDE will start. But, this login shell stays there and I can only min. it.
Errors that pop up in this shell.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>QPixmap: Cannot create a QPixmap when no GUI is
being used. (!! KDE is a gui last time i looked)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Few more errors.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Lauched ok, pid = 527</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Pretty much all apps work fine. Sound doesn't,
but not concerened atm, breif look at that and just need to add in some stuff
to loader.conf</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Also getting a: Could not init font path element
/usr/X11RB/../CID/, removing from list etc.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Viewing log in /var/log seems to suggest
everything else is loading fine.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have no .xinitrc file located in my home dir
which says to me, thats a problem.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have created a user after installing kde 3.2.3
and finding that I still don't get a .xinitrc file in my home
dir.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Other items tried - reinstall of kde, portupgrade
-f kde\* , numerous readings of sites...RTFM bout 5 times, (prolly missed
something) </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Debating wether to look at deinstall of kde and
reinstall of XFree86 , then reinstall kde again after /usr/ports/distfiles
&& rm -r ./*</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Failing that, thinking if a wipe and starting
