Well, finally someone who is having troubles with SuSE's rpm's as much as I am. I followed their instructions to the letter and totally screwed up my x system. I am now back to 3.3.6 but may try downloading from xfree.org as you suggested. On Wed, 29 Mar 2000, Mark Hounschell wrote: > Philipp Thomas wrote: > > > > * Alvaro A.

These both aren't related to the upgrade, though I can't help you as to what is happening here.
The same things are happing to me. They are related to the upgrade to 4.0. Yast now only works correctly when run at run level-2. The root login at run level-3 no longer starts kde either. It goes into somthing I've never seen before. Have you noticed that Soffice wont't run any more either. I've had to go back to 3.3.5-28. This only happens when using the SuSE supplied rpm's. If You get it directly from xfree.org and explicitly install not over writing any config files it works pretty well. These YaST problems and such won't pop up. Even so I've gone back to 3.3.5 because the 3D acceleration module 'glx' kills my X-session when trying to run any 3D stuff. At least it worked in 3.3.5.
