XDM cannot start desktop after Xorg upgrade

[Leslie Jensen]

I've attached the users .xsession-errors and the system xdm.log

Disabling XDM and starting X manually works.



Thanks

I've been using XDM as login manager for years. Since the latest Xorg upgrade, XDM cannot start XFCE4 as it used to. What happens is that after I've given my password and hit enter, the screen goes black and after a while it returns to the XDM log in dialogue. Of and on logging in via XDM works but there's no pattern to when it does and does not.
