Message-ID: <1160.209.244.81.118.1001648675.squirrel@thinktank.mediafarm.ch> (raw)

A google search led to a old gentoo post about kde 2.1.1 which says that 
the /usr/bin/startkde line that says:

LD_BIND_NOW=true kdeinit +kcminit +knotify

should be changed to:

kdeinit +kcminit +knotify

...this worked like a charm.

I installed from sources rc6-r11, so I dont know why the startkde was not 
modified properly...and I dont know why more people didnt have this 
problem....but if you do, that seems to be the fix.

HTH someone
