Bug 83566 – keyboard not working after emerge kde 3.4

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

[Description Miroslaw Holubek 2005-02-28 08:22:04 UTC]

My keyboard not working after emerge kde 3.4 beta2.
emerge -p kde-base/kxkb
These are the packages that I would merge, in order:
Calculating dependencies ...done!
[blocks B     ] =kde-base/kdebase-3.4* (from pkg kde-base/kxkb-3.4.0_beta2)
[ebuild  N    ] kde-base/kxkb-3.4.0_beta2
# emerge =kde-base/kxkb-3.4.0_beta2
Calculating dependencies ...done!
!!! Error: the =kde-base/kdebase-3.4* package conflicts with another package.
!!!        both can't be installed on the same system together.
!!!        Please use 'emerge --pretend' to determine blockers.

you can't mix splitted and unsplitted ebuilds - either kdebase (which includes kxkb) or kdebase-meta (which depends on kxkb)

[Comment 2 Miroslaw Holubek 2005-03-01 06:50:07 UTC]

OK, I have done
emerge -C kdebase
emerge kdebase-meta
emerge kde-base/kxkb
but the keyboard does not work.

[Comment 3 Miroslaw Holubek 2005-03-01 11:04:53 UTC]

Which kde application controls the keyboard?

[Comment 4 Gregorio Guidi (RETIRED) 2005-03-02 02:24:54 UTC]

Make sure you updated /usr/kde/3.4/share/config/kdm/kdmrc with etc-update.
(See here: http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=99026)

And please tell us if you send reports to bugs.kde.org!
