KDM doesnt work after portupgrade from kde-4.5..5_1 to kde-4.6.1

Hi,

I ran portupgrade on KDE related ports, the upgrades were successful and didn't return any error. After restart the KDM doesn't load. I can't initiate startkde either.

Best,

Dave
 
What does $ ls /usr/local/kde4/bin/startkde* return?
also what does $ pkg_info -W /usr/local/kde4/bin/startkde return?
Is /usr/local/kde4/bin in your path?
 
achix:

This is what I get -

Code: 
$ ls /usr/local/kde4/bin/startkde*
/usr/local/kde4/bin/startkde	/usr/local/kde4/bin/startkde4

Code: 
 pkg_info -W /usr/local/kde4/bin/startkde
/usr/local/kde4/bin/startkde was installed by package kdebase-workspace-4.6.1_1

I have set the path right.

Best,

Dave
 
Ok then disable KDM, and make your .xinitrc look like this:
Code: 
xterm

then start xinit normally, and try to run startkde4 from the xterm's shell.
 
Hi,

I fixed it by running libchk, it returned a few broken kdelibs, reinstalled kdelibs-4.6.1 from ports and now kdm works.

Thanks,

Dave
