Using high resolution 1600x1200 resolution on an all-in-wonder-128 (32mb) hangs kde at login time. 8bit/16bit/32bit shows the same problem. 1280x1024 does not. after the login (xdm process) goes away, most of the time the radio-box and progress slider popup comes up. the slider sticks at 83% and never gets past that. This is an initial login for "root". Subsequent login attempts either it does not get that far, or it fails to get past 83%. I tried the lower resolution, and was able to login the second try. I used <ctrl><alt><backspace> to kill the Xserver each time. I rebooted for the 1280x1024 try. kde still won't save my workspace config though, but thats another bug. I'm using a p3-600 768mb aha2940u2w 9gbLVD, an all-in-wonder 128 with 32mb. it also does not seem to matter if I boot linux-2.4.0-test6 or linux-2.2.16-17. kde is sick on login :-( berkley
I find that if I "rm -rf /.kde*" then I can proceed normally. A change from 6.2 is that other processes (like xterm's) launched do not return after a logout/login sequence. I also noted that Aug 25 09:38:53 camera kdm[793]: Cannot open server authorization file /etc/X11/kdm/authdir/A:0-kQEQ6g Aug 25 09:38:53 camera kdm[1919]: IO Error in XOpenDisplay Aug 25 09:38:53 camera kdm[793]: Display :0 cannot be opened Aug 25 09:38:53 camera kdm[793]: Cannot open server authorization file /etc/X11/kdm/authdir/A:0-yHbJm9 the authdir directory did not exist. I created it, and things are a bit happier.
kde was badly broken for the beta but was fixed for final.
