All,
After updating my system two days ago I have been having errors when running vlc, system settings to name a couple. Below is some of what I am seeing in my .xsession-errors file. I am not sure where to continue looking to try and correct these errors. I have tried gnome and xcfe desktop environments, and they are working with out errors. It is only when I am using KDE.
I'd suggest :
- post the output of:
rpm -q qt kdelibs kdebase kdebase-runtime
- try running:
kbuildsycoca4 --noincremental
- is this reproducible by > 1 user on this same box?

After running the rpm I did a yum remove qt-4.7.2-8.fc14.i686. Still had the same issues.

There was a long list of .desktop issues so I cut it short.
- yes logged in as a new user and same issue.
I am thinking about logging in gnome and removing kde and re-installing it. What do you think about this?
Thanks,

All,
My system is back and running. I found I had several old kde rpms on my system. I ran "rpm -qa | grep kde | grep i686", then removed the old KDE rpms. Still having problems, removed KDE, reinstalled KDE several times was using yumex, and the group KDE keep giving me an incorrect install. I used "sudo yum groupinstall KDE" , then system installed correctly.
Rebooted, still had a problem KDE was really slow, unusable! Found a post online about kde4.6 being slow, same problem I was having. first they said to kbuildsycoca4 --noincremental which I had done earlier this morning. So I did the second thing which was to run "rm -rf /var/tmp/kdecache-'usrname'". After this I rebooted my system and all appears to be working... Thanks to those who replied with suggestions.
Thanks,
Phillip Lynn
