Ok, kwmsound fails because kaudioserver didn't start. kaudioserver is failing because it wasn't linked with the library that contains ftok. In FreeBSD 2.2.5 systems I think this was in /usr/lib/libcompat.a but it appears to be in libc in FreeBSD 3.0 (which I'm running). I'm just pulling down the kde port distribution files to see how kaudioserver is being built by the port (I normally build KDE from their source tree rather than using the port). I'll see if I can figure out what's wrong. Did you build KDE from the port or install it some other way? -- Kevin Street street@iName.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
