KDE looks up after startx

discord · 08-25-04, 07:57 AM

Hello,

Just wanted to report that kde freezes as soon as it starts. I've tried two different drivers 6111 and 5336 for my GF2MX card. I am running slackware 10 and have an asus a7v133 motherboard based on the KT133A chipset I believe. Oh the mouse pointer still moves, almost forgot to mention that. Looking at the logs it doesn't look like it ever reaches the xorg log file.

Cheers,

-d

I have the same issue. I have tried drivers 6111, 6106, and 5336. all with the same results. My experience differs though that I can get into KDE but X locks up at varying points in time. No entries in ~/.xsession-errors, Xorg.0.log, or any other system logs. Are there debugging parameters that can be done to help diagnose this error.

Very frustrating.

I am having the same issue (system freezes but you can still move mouse) and its only with the 2.6+ kernels, I foolishly removed my other kernels after I upgraded, it would be nice to know whats going on with this

If it is an athlon-thunder birdchip, thn you have a faulty system with AGP compatibility problems
