I have a problem with running KDE 3.1.4 (after a successful compilation and installation from the latest ports tree).
The kdeinit hangs (and some kdeinit subprocesses crash) while the second icon in the graphical splash screen is blinking (a tool); speaking more technically, while running it I get the following:
# startkde --verbose
startkde: Starting up...
ICE default IO error handler doing an exit(), pid = 972, errno = 45
kdeinit: Communication error with launcher. Exiting!
ICE default IO error handler doing an exit(), pid = 962, errno = 35

Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
QPixmap: Cannot create a QPixmap when no GUI is being used
QPixmap: Cannot create a QPixmap when no GUI is being used
Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
It looks like some problem with communication via Unix sockets (that are created o.k., as it seems to me -- how to check it?).
I was of course seeking help at Google.com, but I just found out that it is a not answered problem also for some Linux users (apparently most often SuSE) and that it MAY be some kind of unlucky combination of GCC compilation options.
So I deinstalled KDE completely (including sockets it /tmp and ~/.kde), then tried to recompile KDE from ports, removing ALL cc/cxx flags in /etc/make/conf (even -march !) And... the same :(
I even tried to install KDE from packages! With identical final effects.
If you'd like to help me, you may want to look for my kde.init.core file;
it's available here:
http://www.krakow.homeunix.com/~kuba/kdeinit.core.bz2
I may also post my kernel config file if you want me to (I don't have access to it now when I am posting it, but can do it later).
Thanks for any help :)
Kuba.
