    Hi people!
    I added new sources for KDE 3.4:
    deb http://pkg-kde.alioth.debian.org/kde-3.4.0/ ./

    and type dist-upgrade on my Debian unstable. It downloaded all kde
    packages and many more others to upgrade.

    After install and reboot I can't run many programs because of bad
    privileges on /dev*.

    For example startkde or zsh shows error: /dev/null: access denied. When
    I do hack chmod a+rw /dev/* it's relatively ok till next reboot.

    Can you help me where would be problem please?
