It's sort of simple. Either deinstall xdm (the package, there's a package by that name now), or move /etc/init.d/xdm.dpkg-dist to /etc/init.d/xdm The new startup script is *requiered* for xdm to work properly. To gain access to your computer, boot linux in single user mode as some people have stated here. Marcelo
