Hi,
Anyone on here using Charter Telephone VOIP service? I've currently
got Verizon, but the wife hates it because our phone lines get flaky
all the time, esp when it rains.
So I'm thinking to save money and combine all my stuff onto Charter.
I've already got High Speed internet and regular old cable. Not wild
about Digital Cable since I'm happy with Tivo and I don't want yet
another set top box to have to deal with...
So, any horror stories about Charter Phone VOIP quality and service?
Thanks,
John
Hello,
KDE 3.5.9 died on me. I installed some updates via the adept updater and
after rebooting, I get dropped into run-level 3 (which I actually
prefer). When I type startkde, which is in /usr/bin, I get the following
errors:
Xsetroot : unable to open display ''
Xset : unable to open display ""
Xsetroot : unable to open display ''
Startkde : Starting up. . .
Startkde : Running kpersonalizer. . .
Kwin : X server can not connect to
Kpersonalizer can not connect to X server :
Kpersonalizer can not connect to X server :
Kpersonalizer can not connect to X server :
If I type startx instead, the gnome window manager starts up fine.
Any ideas??? I really prefer KDE.
Thanks,
