Hi all, SuSE 9.1 Pro here. I just did a YOU today and all went well. However after logging out as myself (non-root user) I can no longer log in again under KDE. The login splash screen hangs while at the "Initializing peripherals" stage with the blinking icon, and then after a few moments the splash goes away and all that is left is a blank "welcome" background screen. Interestingly, logging in under KDE as another user, or as root, works fine. So I thought maybe something got munged in my configuration. I deleted all the ~/.kde ~/.mcop* files and directories, as well as all the KDE related stuff under /tmp and /var/tmp. And none of that made any difference. I still get the same login hang. Rebooting the system also doesn't clear things up. I googled the web in search of a solution and tried just about everything, and still no dice. I don't know if the YOU today has anything to do with this, but it did update the kde3-base libraries and some related stuff. Can someone shed some light on this? P.S. The ~/.xsession-errors file contains some stuff, but I am not sure if any of it is telltale. I'll include that below. -Ti ---------- .xsession-errors ---------- <stdin>:1: invalid preprocessing directive #Dtsession xset: bad font path element (#60), possible causes are: Directory does not exist or has wrong permissions Directory missing fonts.dir Incorrect font server address or syntax xset: bad font path element (#60), possible causes are: Directory does not exist or has wrong permissions Directory missing fonts.dir Incorrect font server address or syntax xset: bad font path element (#60), possible causes are: Directory does not exist or has wrong permissions Directory missing fonts.dir Incorrect font server address or syntax xset: bad font path element (#60), possible causes are: Directory does not exist or has wrong permissions Directory missing fonts.dir Incorrect font server address or syntax Creating link /home/ti/.kde/socket-obelisk.
