Installed from:    Debian stable Packages
Compiler:          Gateway GT5408 Intel Duo 
OS:                Linux

MEPIS reverts to Home menu and will not continue install process.

Comment 1 Oswald Buddenhagen 2008-01-14 16:22:27 UTC

and what makes you believe that this has something to do with kdm (the kde login manager) or kde in the first place?

Comment 2 Kerin 2008-01-14 17:41:43 UTC

Give me a while and I will get more details of the events.
Thanks
Kerin

Hi again
I am a first time Linux newbie. I started to install MEPIS 7.0 from a 
purchased CD (we are still on dialup). It booted OK but after logging in to 
MEPIS 1 demo "application KDESKTOP crashed and caused Signal 6 SIGABRT send 
but report" so that's what I did.

Since then I borrowed a MEPIS 6.5 CD which installed perfectly.

Can you give us any more information on how we can reproduce this bug, or any more details of the problem. There isn't really enough information here to be able to find the bug.

Comment 5 Kerin 2008-01-17 15:55:41 UTC

What information do you need? I just inserted the CD purchased from MEPIS Store. The first message is the login menu for "demo" - demo is the PW - then the crash error appeared. I have replicated it a number of times, but only on this computer.

Comment 6 Lubos Lunak 2008-01-22 18:23:07 UTC

Please attach the backtrace from the crash handler.

Comment 7 Kerin 2008-01-22 22:32:43 UTC

I think I will continue with the other disk, which works OK.

Thank you for listening to me
Kerin
