Hey guys,
I'm running into some troubles since a couple of days... I was working on a way to give parameters to X while launching it from kdm and now there are some things that don't work.
If I launch kate or gedit from a terminal, nothing happens, as if the program was still launching. But nothing. No cpu usage or other signs of activity. I've tryed waiting but after 5 minutes I was borred so I pressed ctrl+c to close the program.
Same thing if I launch gedit. gvim still works.
Also, if I'm in konqueror and type / as the url, X freezes. If i click a bookmark pointing to /home/me/ konqueror freezes but not X.
I then try to "save as" something from firefox and firefox freezes....
I sometimes get a fullscreen window opening from nowhere and then close imidiatly. It's too fast to see if it is a kate or gedit or other window...
What could be wrong?? Even if I try to set back my original settings, it still happens. I've tryed moving ~/.kde to ~/.kde.bak, an old (and working) /etc/X11/xorg.conf, nothing works...:(
Thank you for your help...

I think it could be related to fonts...
I can google with konqueror, but my fonts seems ugly... What should I check??

maybe /etc/fonts/local.conf... make sure you read the wiki on fonts. One of the thing s in there may have been bjorked during an update somehow. No idea really, just tossing out ideas.

you might check your dispay environment variable.
type 'export' in a terminal, and see what it shows.
you should see something like:
declare -x DISPLAY=":0.0""Be conservative in what you send; be liberal in what you accept." -- Postel's Law
"tacos" -- Cactus' Law

Yes I have this line after typing "export"...
Since I think I was playing around with kdm when the problem occured, I changed the line in /etc/inittab from x:5:respawn:/opt/kde/bin/kdm -nodaemon to x:5:respawn:/opt/kde/bin/gdm -nodaemon
and I then had ugly fonts in firefox and konqueror. After changing it back to kdm, fonts looks ok in firefox and konqueror...
I just "pacman -Syu" and update everything (including xorg) and also upgraded my kernel to 2.6.12.2 with the fbsplash patch. Nothing is resolved...:(
I've checked /etc/fonts/local.conf but I cant see anything wrong with it...

I do have this in my /var/log/daemon.log:

Could it be related?

I've tryed running kate again, and now it ran after 2 minutes of waiting. In the terminal window, I have this output:

-(~/Fichiers/Telecharges:$)-> kate

Why does it takes 2 minutes??!!

sounds like PAM might be bjorked. Try reinstalling it... I think its pacman -S pam or pacman -S libpam, or maybe its part of shadow, lol.
pacman -Qo pam_console.so should tell you the name of the package.

Ok I reinstalled pam with pacman -S pam
Didn't seems to change anything... running kate I get:
> kate
DCOPClient::attachInternal. Attach failed Could not open network socket
DCOPClient::attachInternal. Attach failed Could not open network socket
Link points to "/tmp/ksocket-nicolas"
Link points to "/tmp/kde-nicolas"
And after 2 minutes I get:
kbuildsycoca running...
I'm still waiting for kate to launch after 5 minutes...
I still have, in daemon.log,errors.log and everything.log:
Jul 5 18:21:24 di8500 kdm: :0[5318]: PAM unable to dlopen(/lib/security/pam_console.so)

I just don't know where to look to correct this... ![]()

If I run kate as root, I get this:

I've run konqueror from the command line, and after entering "/home/me" konqueror seems to hangs, but I get no errors on the console so I didn't force closed it. After 5 minutes of waiting konqueror works again. I can then browse my files.
Why is it taking so long for this stupid simple task??

long shot, but , what DE/WM are you using ? if is Xfce4 have you told it to start gnome and kde services at startup?

Yes it is Xfce4 and I've never launch the kde/gnome services at startup. I've tryed another account (using kde and not xfce4) and the welcome screen stay at "launching services..."
I could try the kde/gnome services from xfce4 but I hope it wont freeze xfce4 launching... What keep me using my computer was that I used xfce4 and not kde so xfce4 tools still works (like terminal, xffm and others).

try it. it has other implications i think, altho im not very well informed on what it uses. like gcc or whatever. it worked for me in a similar situation.

I just reinstalled everything. New arch system. After 2 days, still the same %?&$%?&$%?& problem....
The screen locks for 5~10 minutes in the "loading services..." in gnome or kde.
I've seen that dbus and pam have been upgraded pam 2 days ago and dbus today...
What is wrong with this???

Damnit, I've found the problem!
From this thread, the problem seemed to be with networking...
Since I'm using wlan0, I tough I didn't need the network daemon set to launch in rc.conf since wlan0 is launched by "wirelless_profile".
Now that I run the network daemon, kde works fine! Except, I get the kwin crash...
I deleted ~/.kde, unload fam and portmap from rc.conf and now everything's fine!

Oh! You need to run the "lo" connection, stupid! ![]()
