[NTLUG:Discuss] KDE does not start normally in Suse 9.1

[Gilbert Morrow]

Have u tried to useing the repair on the SuSE disc , boot with disc
one if cd or with the dvd
if dvd do as a normal load but at the point it asks for new install or
upgrade there is a selection
there that allows u to repair , once at that screen try automatic
repair first . I have never heard of this before in SuSE in Mandrake
and Fedora but not SuSE. Might try going to www.linuxforum.com if this
does not work maybe someone there has experienced the same problem ,
SuSE section.
