Starting KDM

[Jerry Van Brimmer]

Hello,

I have Woody installed. I wanted to have X support for an ATI Radeon 7500 card so I upgraded to XFree86 version 4.2.0. I downloaded all of the files from the XFree86 website and installed them according to their instructions. I use KDE 2.2.2 as my window manager, and KDM as my login manager. Everything worked fine before the XFree upgrade. However, now when I boot up, Woody goes straight to a console login prompt. I have RTFineM. My /etc/X11/default-display-manager file says /usr/bin/kdm. I have KDM installed. I have run "dpkg-reconfigure kdm" and set kdm as default. When I ran "update-rc.d kdm defaults" it says that 'System startup links for /etc/init.d/kdm' already exists. Still, everytime I boot up, Woody goes straight to a console login prompt. If I then login as user, and then run "startx", then KDE starts up. I want KDM to start up at bootup. What could be wrong?

debian_newbie,
Thanks
