I admit i haven't read all the threads but when i had the "fixed font" problem i've read that installing font-alias solves the problem ... and it did. > > Adding font-alias would just be treating the next symptom, and then > you'll probably find that something else still doesn't work because it > is also missing. i know it's not that important but i like the idea of having to install only the apps i use. > > As I've said a *number* of times already (and as is mentioned in the > UPDATING instructions), install the x11/xorg port to obtain a complete > installation. > > Kris After 2 days of compiling on my laptop ... if i can avoid compiling anything i will :) .I still haven't updated kdevelop & kdesdk since they are already in /usr/local and still work after the upgrade ( maybe because of lib/compat )... anyway since they work they will stay like this until next kde update. If you want to be on the safe side you are right install x11/xorg ... but then again ... if you really want to be on the really safe side ... stick with -RELEASE ;-) And btw i'm experiencing some crashes/locks with the new xorg ... 6.9 used to run for weeks without problems ... 7.2 still has to reach 24h without a problem - but maybe more on a new thread if i'll have more info. -- Best Regards, Iulian Margarintescu http://www.erata.net [EMAIL PROTECTED] (spamassassin & pf & spamd all said it's OK to make it public ;-) ) Key ID: 0x03176E5CEDEFF7AB I prefer plain text email
