Hello Jon,
I did follow those steps and it will run but when I go into it via the
lightdm, it basically stays at the "Starting the Common Desktop
Environment" blue screen with the /usr/dt/bin/ttsession -s process pegging
the CPU at about 80-90%. Not sure what to do but I don't get this if I
disable lightdm from startup and just run it from the command console.
Thanks!
John
