Dear KDE'ers, I've running XFree 4.0.3, KDE 2.1.1, Debian 2.2r2, Kernel 2.4.3 and kde is running fine, except kdm, which does nothing if started.
In more detail : # kdm -nodaemon kdm: error in loading shared libraries: kdm: undefined symbol: _XdmcpWrapperToOddParity and kdm -debug 1 gives (in /var/log/daemon.log) : Apr 4 23:36:48 ianos2 kdm[849]: DisplayManager.errorLogFile/DisplayManager.ErrorLogFile value /var/log/kdm.log Apr 4 23:36:48 ianos2 kdm[849]: DisplayManager.daemonMode/DisplayManager.DaemonMode value true Apr 4 23:36:48 ianos2 kdm[849]: DisplayManager.pidFile/DisplayManager.PidFile value /var/run/kdm.pid Apr 4 23:36:48 ianos2 kdm[849]: DisplayManager.lockPidFile/DisplayManager.LockPidFile value true Apr 4 23:36:48 ianos2 kdm[849]: DisplayManager.authDir/DisplayManager.authDir value /var/lib/kdm Apr 4 23:36:48 ianos2 kdm[849]: DisplayManager.autoRescan/DisplayManager.AutoRescan value true Apr 4 23:36:48 ianos2 kdm[849]: DisplayManager.removeDomainname/DisplayManager.RemoveDomainname value true Apr 4 23:36:48 ianos2 kdm[849]: DisplayManager.keyFile/DisplayManager.KeyFile value /etc/X11/kdm/xdm-keys Apr 4 23:36:48 ianos2 kdm[849]: DisplayManager.accessFile/DisplayManager.AccessFile value /etc/X11/kdm/Xaccess Apr 4 23:36:48 ianos2 kdm[849]: DisplayManager.exportList/DisplayManager.ExportList value Apr 4 23:36:48 ianos2 kdm[849]: DisplayManager.randomFile/DisplayManager.RandomFile value /dev/mem Apr 4 23:36:48 ianos2 kdm[849]: DisplayManager.greeterLib/DisplayManager.GreeterLib value libKdmGreet.so Apr 4 23:36:48 ianos2 kdm[849]: DisplayManager.choiceTimeout/DisplayManager.ChoiceTimeout value 15 Apr 4 23:36:48 ianos2 kdm[849]: DisplayManager.sourceAddress/DisplayManager.SourceAddress value false Apr 4 23:36:48 ianos2 kdm[849]: DisplayManager.willing/DisplayManager.Willing value Apr 4 23:36:48 ianos2 kdm[849]: DisplayManager.autoLogin/DisplayManager.AutoLogin value true Apr 4 23:36:48 ianos2 kdm[850]: creating socket 177 Apr 4 23:36:48 ianos2 kdm[850]: Created chooser socket 6 Apr 4 23:36:48 ianos2 kdm[850]: Found new display: :0 local /usr/bin/X11/X vt7 -deferglyphs 16 Apr 4 23:36:48 ianos2 kdm[850]: StartDisplay :0 Apr 4 23:36:48 ianos2 kdm[850]: DisplayManager._0.serverAttempts/DisplayManager._0.ServerAttempts value 1 Apr 4 23:36:48 ianos2 kdm[850]: DisplayManager._0.openDelay/DisplayManager._0.OpenDelay value 15 Apr 4 23:36:48 ianos2 kdm[850]: DisplayManager._0.openRepeat/DisplayManager._0.OpenRepeat value 5 Apr 4 23:36:48 ianos2 kdm[850]: DisplayManager._0.openTimeout/DisplayManager._0.OpenTimeout value 120 Apr 4 23:36:48 ianos2 kdm[850]: DisplayManager._0.startAttempts/DisplayManager._0.StartAttempts value 4 Apr 4 23:36:48 ianos2 kdm[850]: DisplayManager._0.pingInterval/DisplayManager._0.PingInterval value 5 Apr 4 23:36:48 ianos2 kdm[850]: DisplayManager._0.pingTimeout/DisplayManager._0.PingTimeout value 5 Apr 4 23:36:48 ianos2 kdm[850]: DisplayManager._0.terminateServer/DisplayManager._0.TerminateServer value false Apr 4 23:36:48 ianos2 kdm[850]: DisplayManager._0.grabServer/DisplayManager._0.GrabServer value false Apr 4 23:36:48 ianos2 kdm[850]: DisplayManager._0.grabTimeout/DisplayManager._0.GrabTimeout value 3 Apr 4 23:36:48 ianos2 kdm[850]: DisplayManager._0.resetSignal/DisplayManager._0.Signal value 1 Apr 4 23:36:48 ianos2 kdm[850]: DisplayManager._0.termSignal/DisplayManager._0.Signal value 15 Apr 4 23:36:48 ianos2 kdm[850]: DisplayManager._0.resetForAuth/DisplayManager._0.ResetForAuth value false Apr 4 23:36:48 ianos2 kdm[850]: DisplayManager._0.authorize/DisplayManager._0.Authorize value true Apr 4 23:36:48 ianos2 kdm[850]: DisplayManager._0.authComplain/DisplayManager._0.AuthComplain value true Apr 4 23:36:48 ianos2 kdm[850]: DisplayManager._0.authName/DisplayManager._0.AuthName value XDM-AUTHORIZATION-1 MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 Apr 4 23:36:48 ianos2 kdm[850]: DisplayManager._0.authFile/DisplayManager._0.AuthFile value Apr 4 23:36:48 ianos2 kdm[850]: DisplayManager._0.fifoCreate/DisplayManager._0.FifoCreate value false Apr 4 23:36:48 ianos2 kdm[850]: DisplayManager._0.fifoOwner/DisplayManager._0.FifoOwner value -1 Apr 4 23:36:48 ianos2 kdm[850]: DisplayManager._0.fifoGroup/DisplayManager._0.FifoGroup value -1 Apr 4 23:36:48 ianos2 kdm[850]: DisplayManager._0.startInterval/DisplayManager._0.StartInterval value 30 Apr 4 23:36:48 ianos2 kdm[850]: SetLocalAuthorization :0, auth XDM-AUTHORIZATION-1 Apr 4 23:36:48 ianos2 kdm[850]: GenerateAuthorization XDM-AUTHORIZATION-1 someone has a clue ? thanks in advance, Brecht Vermeulen Dep. of Information Technology Ghent University Belgium
