Hello,
I updated ports to KDE 4.10.5 (from July to November) and I can no longer log in on the KDM/KDE login screen. It is not necessarily that I cannot login, but that the keyboard and the mouse are non-functional. I can escape out of that login screen back to a console login using an older Sun USB keyboard. At the console, the normal keyboard, mouse and login are all normal. /var/log/messages shows that the keyboard and mouse are recognized appropriately, so it is not the OS, just something with the KDM login screen.
I see the following error message in /var/log/messages
Any clues as to what may be the problem? I have rebuilt KDE twice now. It seems the next step is to rebuild everything? In case it matters, this is my /etc/make.conf:
Thanks for any suggestions.
