You probably made some changes which influated on the file listed.Have a look at that file. Open a terminal connection and look the permissions of that file.Type the following command line :

CONSOLE

ls -l /root/.DCOPserve_hide_0

If you see "file not found", then there is a real configuration problem.If the file exists, try typingchmod ugo+rwx /root/.DCOPserve_hide_0and try connecting again to kde.Hope this helpedYordan

Just an idea, any config you're going to alter, always make a backup of it, incase problems like this arise, so you can revert back to the original and try again.Did you try the config without xtt?Load "freetype"Load "type1"Load "speedo"#Load "xtt" X True Type Font ModuleWhich I have commented out due to it's incompatibilities.Just sounds like you weren't loading the right font modules. Try without "xtt" and if you don't have any problems, consider it sorted.Cheers,MC

Most of the stuff on most sites didn't work for me, but what DID work:$ sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop$ sudo bash (In Debian Etch (at least) makes you root, but keeps ~ pointing to /home/username)# startx /usr/bin/startkde (starts kde as root, so it can write to whatever files necessary to make this work)Quit KDEDoing this changed ownership of several files/dirs in ~, so change them all back# chmod -R username.groupname .ICEauthority .kde .mcop .rnd .Xauthority# CTRL-D$ /etc/init.d/gdm start
