The form is having some problems, so I copied 2 bug reports into text format. Please add them to the gnats database when possible. Thanks. AGS -------------------------------------------------------------------------- REPORTS: Submit a FreeBSD problem report Thank you for taking the time to let us know about a problem with FreeBSD. Please fill out the form as completely as possible. Make sure you fill in the "Environment" field as requested with the output from the machine on which problem occurred. Your Electronic Mail Address: Your Name: ixkatl@yahoo.com Your Organization or Company: Wang One line summary of the problem: Incompatibility between GNOME and KDE Category: ports Severity: non-critical Priority: medium Class: sw-bug Which FreeBSD Release You Are Using : 3.4 (also in 3.3, perhaps others?) Environment (output of "uname -a" on the problem machine): FreeBSD parzival.network.net 3.4-RELEASE FreeBSD 3.4-RELEASE #0: Tue Feb 8 16:15:46 2000 root@parzival.network.net:/usr/src/sys/compile/PARZIVAL i386 Full Description: I was running 3.3 at home with KDE. I decided to install GNOME/ Enlightenment from CD. This made the KDE libs cease to work (linker error message about missing symbols in libkdedui.so.2 among others. It's been a while, I have forgotten the precise messages.) I never bothered to fix it, as I planned on upgrading to 3.4 very soon after. Later I installed 3.4 on a test box at work. I installed KDE and GNOME libraries, core, etc. (Everything under the rspective entries in sysinstall). And KDE again failed. To prevent this at home, I avoided installing any KDE ports at first. However, one port required kdelibs as a dependency. I later installed KDE, and, as expected, KDE apps were broken. I did pkg_delete on kdelibs and reinstalled from CD and KDE worked. At work, the fix was not so easy. I tried to reinstall kdelibs from the ports directory and the errors persisted. (I plan on bringing in the CD and reinstalling from CD tomorrow. I will update then.) How to repeat the problem: Install KDE and GNOME simultaneously, or GNOME after KDE. Run any KDE application. Kpat, kshisen, and kmahjongg are three I recall failing. Fix to the problem if known: Remove kdelibs and then reinstall. (Does not always seem to work.) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Submit a FreeBSD problem report Thank you for taking the time to let us know about a problem with FreeBSD.

Your Electronic Mail Address: Your Name: ixkatl@yahoo.com Your Organization or Company: Wang One line summary of the problem: Eterm fails to function Category: ports Severity: non-critical Priority: medium Class: sw-bug Which FreeBSD Release You Are Using : 3.4 Environment (output of "uname -a" on the problem machine): FreeBSD parzival.network.net 3.4-RELEASE FreeBSD 3.4-RELEASE #0: Tue Feb 8 16:15:46 2000 root@parzival.network.net:/usr/src/sys/compile/PARZIVAL i386 Full Description: When running eterm, the prompt appears as normal. However, whenever I strike return, the message "load: 0.16 cmd:csh 87509 [tty1n] 0.03u 0.02s 0% 264k" is displayed. (The specific PID, load and usage numbers vary, but the message is always of the same type.) Nothing can be executed from the command line. How to repeat the problem: Unknown. I am running GNOME with Enlightenment, with KDE compatibility turned on. I am unusre what other factors may have some bearing on this. Fix to the problem if known: Unknown. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Talk to your friends online with Yahoo!
