Hi Lars and Stefen,
Thanks a lot for taking the time to help me troubleshoot my problem. As Lars
mentioned, I executed the pkgchk command. I got the same output.
# pkgchk -v KDEkderuntime-343
/usr
/usr/lib
/usr/lib/libsunmath.so
/usr/lib/libsunmath.so.1
/usr/lib/sparcv9
/usr/lib/sparcv9/libsunmath.so
/usr/lib/sparcv9/libsunmath.so.1
However, I am unable to locate any startkde.out file in the /tmp directory
:(. Have I missed anything ?
Thanks,
Nilesh

Hi Lars and Stefen,<br>
Thanks a lot for taking the time to help me troubleshoot my problem. As
Lars mentioned, I executed the pkgchk command. I got the same output.<br>
<br>
# pkgchk -v KDEkderuntime-343<br>
/usr<br>
/usr/lib<br>
/usr/lib/libsunmath.so<br>
/usr/lib/libsunmath.so.1<br>
/usr/lib/sparcv9<br>
/usr/lib/sparcv9/libsunmath.so<br>
/usr/lib/sparcv9/libsunmath.so.1<br>
<br>
However, I am unable to locate any startkde.out file in the /tmp directory :(. Have I \
missed anything ?<br> <br>
