That allways worked. Yeah kde seems to ignore /etc/profile, I could not figure out how to change this. You said it worked in linux-from scratch. I will take a look at it (I like that concept too). Can you start netscape direct typing /usr/X11R6/bin/netscape? If not run it with strace (dev-ustils/strace) and send me the log please. This is the first time this problem occured. bye achim~ Ok should we try to solve one problem at a time, actually since your online do you have a chat client maybe we could talk straight to each other? If not here is netscape script in /usr/X11R6/bin/ it errors out with /usr/X11R6/bin/netscape /usr/X11R6/bin/netscape: line 8: 25477 Bus error $MOZILLA_HOME/netscape $@ Ok and yes I followed the directions on faq and I did a cat on the /etc/groups and it shows root and naz (wheel::10:root,naz) that is the exact line. The kde is weird because they do not have any directions on linuxfromscratch just how to build a base system then I compiled kde from just downloading kde for kde.org newest release 2.1 and it worked fine with my profile.
