Does anyone have KDE 1.9 (KDE2 beta) with Koffice running? I've installed the Suse rpm's for it. It creates a directory /opt/kd2/ with all the new apps. I can't get X to use it properly. I set $WINDOWMANAGER to /opt/kde2/bin/startkde X starts up fine - switches from the X pointer to the arrow pointer. chugs along and then spits out this error message: There was an error setting up inter-process communications for KDE. The message returned by the system was: Authentication rejected, reason: None of the authentication protocols specified are supported and host based authentication failed end of message. When I get out of X the console has the following messages: Dcopserver pid=4869 result=0 Klauncher pid=70 result=0 Launchrd kxmlrpcd result=0 kwrited result=0 I'm using a fresh install of Suse 6.4 from an iso image of the evaluation CD. I don't think I have changed any of the standard X configuration files. Any ideas - I'm anxious to try out Kword and Konqueror and Khtml Thanks Gord ===== Gordon J.
