Neither beryl or compiz are installed. Here's what shows up when I try to
start Katapult in Konsole:

X Error: BadDevice, invalid or uninitialized input device 167
  Major opcode: 146
  Minor opcode: 3
  Resource id: 0x0
Failed to open device
X Error: BadDevice, invalid or uninitialized input device 167
  Major opcode: 146
  Minor opcode: 3
  Resource id: 0x0
Failed to open device
Ignored duplicate item: Scribus
Ignored duplicate item: Gnumeric Spreadsheet

I get the same information, however, (down to the "failed to open device"
part) if I open another program such as Kate or gnumeric in Konsole, but Kate
and gnumeric open and function anyway.

I have reinstalled katapult and it begins to load but doesn't open. I have
tried dpkg, apt and adept, but they all say that it has been successfully
loaded.

I don't know if it is equipment related or not. My computer is a Lenovo T-60
dual core, which can be a little squirrely at times. Katapult works with
Fiesty on my Dell Inspiron 8200.
