[bt-devel] KDE2

[Joachim Ansorg]

Hi!

Are you sure the KDEDIR and QTDIR environment variables are set correctly before starting startx  ??
Try "export KDEDIR=<your KDEDIR> QTDIR=<your QTDIR> WINDOWMANAGER=kde2 startx"

I'm using kde2 as WINDOWMANAGER, the script should be called kde2 or kde2 should be a link to the KDE2 startup script.

I'm usin SuSE!
