Hi, I just want to start of by saying that everything seems to be working just fine, however when I issue the 'startx' command I get the following messages on the screen .....

I haven't noticed anthing crashing, but I'm curious why I'm getting these messages. I would like your help in cleaning them up.

Thanks,
John.

The only "problem" is the message with .ICE-unix. It means you KDE-startup will be 5 seconds delayed! The rest are just smaller problems inside the starting programs. You can ignore them.

You should "chown -R root /tmp/.ICE-unix".
