    KDE not starting + installation/removing problem

    HI !

    I installed K3.9 EN into my machine.
    In live CD the KDE is working good, but after installation (HDD boot!) the KDE is not started...

    The kdm is started, the login is ok, but when the splash screen is flashing on "Starting system services", the progress is halted.

    I don't know what is the problem (IceWM is working good).

    So I thinking about to I install KDE in correct way.
    Then I tried to remove KDE, apt-get said "KDE is not installed"... Hmmm...
    Then I try to install it, but 4 packages was probelmatic.

    When I try to remove KDE, it is say "Try to fix it with -f".
    When I try to fix it with "-f", it show error messages...

    What I do wrong ? How to force the installation or removing ?

    The messages are:

    apt-get remove kde
    ****************
    Reading Package Lists...
    Building Dependency Tree...
    You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these:
    The following packages have unmet dependencies:
    kdeartwork: Depends: kdeartwork-style (>= 4:3.3.2-1) but it is not going to be installed
    Depends: kdeartwork-theme-window (>= 4:3.3.2-1) but it is not going to be installed
    kdeedu: Depends: kdeedu-data (>= 4:3.3.2-3.sarge.1) but it is not going to be installed
    kdegraphics: Depends: ksvg (>= 4:3.3.2-2sarge1) but it is not going to be installed

    E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).

    apt-get -f install

    We have cautioned new users from installing Knoppix to the HD without first being aware that it might not work for them http://www.knoppix.net/wiki/Hd_Install_HowTo. You have run into a known issue with Knoppix 3.9 HD Installs in that it breaks networking. You do not need to remove/reinstall KDE to fix this problem.

    The bug is documented as #15 http://www.knoppix.net/wiki/Bugs/3.9-2005-05-27 and can be resolved by entering the command as root user:
    ln -s /etc/init.d/ifupdown-clean /etc/rcS.d/S18ifupdown-clean
    Then reboot the PC.

    Let us know if this is successful.
