Hi,

I have a IBM A31p running RedHat 7.3 and KDE works OK.  I tried to update to
8.0 and the KDE gives me an error screen
That states: “couldn’t start kdeinit check installation”  In the first try I
did add some other packages, so I thought there might be a conflict also
when 8.0
Starts it saw my firewire and I enabled it.  Since that system did not work
I regenerated my system ( I have a second disk drive that I cloned so if the
update
Does not work I can recover completely). I just updated the existing
packages only and did no t enable the firewire. The same message was
displayed. Has anyone else had this problem and if so what is the solution.
Does the 8.0 install work with KDE from scratch. One more thing, I got the
A31p about one week after the first release, the graphics board was not
supported fully so I enabled it as a Vesa card. Is it possible that there is
a problem with that. Also, how do I switch to the current Xfree86 setup for
the A31p graphics board.

Thanks Mitch
