Darin,
Thank you for fwd'ing my message to the blastwave list, I certainly
appreciate it. I was torn between posting it here or on the blastwave
list to begin with, but since the pkg-get upgrade only broke KDE, I
thought it was KDE-specific.
I've subscribed to the blastwave list, and I'll be watching it for any
updates. If their answers point to something KDE-relevant, I'll post
back here.
Thanks again,
Evan

Hello,
I hate to be a 'Chicken Little', but I ran pkg-get upgrade on my Solaris
10 SunBlade 100 and now I can't log into KDE. I had been running KDE
3.4.2 (REV=2005.9.18) with no problems for a while now and during the
upgrade, I noticed that only kde_base was getting upgraded to 3.4.3
(REV=2006.01.08), while the rest of KDE was not. I didn't think
anything of it at the time, but after rebooting, I can't log in to KDE.
The OpenWindows desktop starts to load, I see the KDM loading screen,
then a KDE error message pops up showing the 'bomb and gear' icon, but
there is no text in the error message, and then everything just freezes.
I have to power off the box and choose a different desktop session to
actually log in.
Is there a way to roll back the kde_base package to the previous
version? If not, does anyone have an idea as to how I can begin
diagnosing this problem, seeing as I can't even log in to KDE?
Many thanks in advance,
Evan D. Bradley
