I have been running Woody with KDE and xfree86 from Sid. I did an apt-get upgrade tonight without first checking to see what would be upgraded.
So, stupid mistake, I know. Now, however, I cannot start KDE. I can get the kdm login screen, but if I enter a user/password, I get the following error: Startup program /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/kdm/Xstartup exited with a non-zero status. Please contact your system administrator. There are no unusual entries in the XFree86 log, nor do I see any odd messages if I hit ctrl-alt-f1 to see the console. When I did the apt upgrade, I noticed that xserver-xfree86 was updated from 4.1.0-7 (I think) to 4.1.0-9. AFAIK, no kde-related package was updated. Was there a change in one of the xfree86 config files that might have caused this problem? Can anyone offer any suggestions on how to resolve this problem? --kurt
