I recently switched the graphics card from an ATI XPERT@WORK graphics card to a Creative Labs 3D Graphics Blaster TNT2. I also upgraded the CPU to a 750MHz athlon. Now, XFree86 runs fine, and twm and xterms are kinky happy, but KDE is just cranky as hell -- buttons don't paint at all, clipping is pretty much a wreck -- menus leave turds all over the place. Upgrading to XFree86 3.3.6 didn't help at all ... Does anybody have any idea why this would all suddenly be screwed up? I'd really rather not have to recompile and reinstall KDE (and I'm not even sure that would work ....) Any thoughts would be appreciated!!! thanks, marc To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
