After power failure, my kde system won't start anmore.
I still get graphical login-prompt but after entering username and
password, it returns to login-prompt.
I was logged in as normal user but root login didn't work as well.
Which files could be corrupt and how can i repair kde?
My system: RedHat 7.2 on Dell Inspiron 5000e Notebook
Tanks in advance,
Phyrum

try switching to run level 3 (ctrl-f1 to text console, login as root,
execute telinit 3) and then login as regular user. Run xinit. Your X system
starts up and brings xterm console. Execute
$ startkde 2>&1 output.txt
After it fails, see output.txt and look for error messages. If you find
them and still won't be able to figure out what the problem is, post the
log (relevant parts of it) here.
Cheers,

Is this the right place to post this ?
Anyway.. maybe someone can help me...
I have KDE 1.1.2 and I have been working with the Global Keys, choosing ALT
for system pop-up or something..
Suddenly KDE crached and now it starts, I can see the coarse background and
the mouse, but before loading a desktop scheme it crahes and says: kpanel:
waiting for Window manager ..
Anyone knows what the cause may be ?
Any way I can start KDE with STANDARD configuration ? and where does KDE
store the desktop theme settings ?
Thanks a lot.
P.S. I also erased some Themes, but I thought KDE uses the tar.gz ones.
Isn't that true ?
