Lets try Again !!! ---------------------------- Greeting'z, I have been trying to fix this since Tuesday 09-05, due to stormy weather, I shutdown before leaving for the weekend, normally I rarely logout, let alone shutdwn. Login (from KDM) is ok, while loading kde, (splash at stage: "restoring session") it freezes, all user procs seem stuck in stop/wait state (no zombies), must kill X (CAB), I can login with other (normaly unused) uids, and root ok ( I never clutter up my root desktop ), I can drop to init 3, login, startx, same result, mv .kde .kde-save and start fresh, loads fine, cp over my configs (except: Kgpg, Kpgp), and restart X, and it loads completely (although several panel applets, and superkaramba get left out) But ( this is whats driving me crazy ), if I exit and startx again, same problem (its adding the kgpg, kpgp config back in,, but a clean kde init does not have them, most likely its referenced from kmail, have not yet disabled gpg from within kmail, yet) Twice while testing ( adding one apps configs at a time), I got an error message stating that: GnuPG Agent is enabled, but the agent doesnt seem to be running, that I should disable it, or fix the agent. < see attachment (screenshot): kgpg-startup-error-1.jpg > !!!!!!!!!! WTF 30KB file limit on this list !!!!!!!! @$^*(^$##^&**%#^& !!!!!!!!!! Disabling the agent through KGpg's config did not fix it. On 09-05, I ran YOU, and found updates for gpg, and gpg2, but this had no effect ::
2006-09-05 17:59:50 (16992): Installing gpg2: "gpg2: This update fixes a segmentaion fault" 2006-09-05 17:59:44 (16992): Installing gpg: "gpg: This update fixes a segmentaion fault"
I did notice that after the previous run of YOU, w/ another gpg fix, that the time frame after I had a similar ( or the same ) problem, but after trying to login a couple times, it finally worked
2006-07-26 17:56:53 (660): Installing gpg2: "gpg2: Security update to fix crash on special crafted messages"
Nothing of relevnce in system logs:
/var/log/{localmessages,XFree86.0.log,Xorg.0.0.log,Xorg.0.log,kdm.log} /var/log/messages & /var/log/warn:: Sep 6 22:06:41 enki kdm[7907]: X server for display :0 terminated unexpectedly Sep 6 22:04:53 enki kdm_config[7908]: Unrecognized key 'Themes' in section [X-*-Greeter] at /etc/opt/ kde3/share/config/kdm/kdmrc:57 Sep 6 22:04:53 enki kdm_config[7908]: Unrecognized key 'UseLilo' in section [Shutdown] at /etc/opt/kd e3/share/config/kdm/kdmrc:15
captured output of startx, but tells me nothing usefull < see attachment: startx-kde_freeze-log-1.txt >
These are the files I can mv/rm and get the desktop loaded:
.kde/share/config/kgpgrc
.kde/share/config/kpgprc
----------
well, that is all I can think of to report,
If anybody can help me fix this, I would greatly appriciate it.
