It's alot better overall, but: konsole fails if started from the task bar, the 'run' menu, or at startup by the system. When started by the task bar it gets a SIGABRT, and nothing to informative is revealed looking at the Crash Hanlder's backrace. (at least not to me, so I've included it at the bottom of this email.) The second problem appears to be with konsole_grantpty. When started from an xterm, which launches just fine from run, konsole pops up as expected, works just fine, but this error displays on the controlling xterm: $konsole konsole_grantpty: cannot determine the name of device. konsole: chownpty failed for device /dev/ptyp2::/dev/ttyp2. : This means the session can be eavesdroped. : Make sure konsole_grantpty is installed in : /usr/local/bin/ and setuid root. Unknown child process 1922 died konsole: setgroups: Operation not permitted $ ls -lsa /usr/local/bin/konsole_grantpty 33 -rwsr-xr-x 1 root wheel 33252 Nov 7 17:06 /usr/local/bin/konsole_grantpty So it is installed and setuid. Perhaps someone here has some suggestions on how to resolve this problem? I think it's safe to assume that this is a fBSD port problem and not something that's broken in kde2. Interestingly enough, in the kde2-prerelease it was working just fine, even though I belive that I still had the problem with the konsole_grantpty.
