It is difficult to see what could be freezing your session the second time you log in. I haven't seen this issue on Ubuntu with CDE 2.5.0. I have only a few suggestions to try to detect the origin of the problem.

Have you examined the files created under .dt/sessions ? Is there something started in sessionetc

that does not go in the background ? Are there some files under .dt/sessionlogs/ ?

Can you switch consoles with ctrl+alt+Fn and run top on the machine ? Alternatively, can you use a second PC to ssh in the machine and run top to see if a program is using 100% of memory or CPU ?

You may then try to kill the program and see if the session starts correctly or ends.

I am trying to use the latest stable CDE on Manjaro. Compilation and installation
goes through with no problem.

I remove old .dtprofile and old .dt/ from my home.

startx /usr/dt/bin/Xsession

All is well.

Logout and try again:

startx /usr/dt/bin/Xsession

CDE starts and freezes immediately

Same behavior from lightdm login manager or dtlogin manager. The first attempt (without .dt/ and .dtprofile) works.
The second attempt (now we have .dt/ and .dtprofile) always freezes.

$HOME/.dt/errorlog remains empty.

$HOME/.dt/startlog shows no error:

 $ cat startlog

not execing /home/atsol/.profile (see /home/atsol/.dtprofile)



Has anyone seen this behavior? How can I find what is wrong. It does the very same thing on two pcs with updated Manjaro Linux. It does exactly the same if I install cdesktopenv-git
from AUR.

Antonis.
