When you use FreeBSD do you use KDE as well? Does it happen the same

Did you use pkg or ports to install KDE? What is the version of KDE,
Xorg and OpenBSD that you use.
If you use KDE in FreeBSD did you compare the files xorg.conf? What is
the version of KDE, Xorg and FreeBSD that you use?

Best,
Predrag

P. S. And yes I will also suggest that you use something much lighter. I
see no purpose in running KDE on the top of the system
like OpenBSD.
Personally I run Openbox, Xfce4-panel and I set the wall paper with feh

my /.xsession (.xinitrc if you do not want xdm) file looks like

feh --bg-scale /path to my image & xfce4-panel & exec openbox

Default fvwm is excellent as well. Just set up wall paper with feh and
you will be happy camper.

OK, here is the info:

FreeBSD 6.3-PRERELEASE compiled from cvsup source
Xorg 7.3
KDE 3.5 compiled from ports
in xorg.conf DRI and GLX are loaded

OpenBSD-current compiled from cvsup today
Xorg 7.2
KDE3.5 compiled from ports
loading DRI or GLX crashes server so I commented them out
also the mouse device is different

Thanks, Rob
