Hi,
I want to boot "into kdm", or -- in other words -- the first thing I
want to do after switching on my PC is to login into the kdm panel.
Furthermore, kde should NOT be started, but icewm.
I searched the gentoo wiki and the docs at gentoo.org for hints and
found bits and pieces what to do...but it still does not work.
My current (not working) settings are:
etc/inittab:
# Default runlevel.
id:5:initdefault:
# System initialization, mount local filesystems, etc.
si::sysinit:/sbin/rc sysinit
# Further system initialization, brings up the boot runlevel.
rc::bootwait:/sbin/rc boot
l0:0:wait:/sbin/rc shutdown
l1:S1:wait:/sbin/rc single
l2:2:wait:/sbin/rc nonetwork
l3:3:wait:/sbin/rc default
l4:4:wait:/sbin/rc default
l5:5:wait:/sbin/rc X11
l6:6:wait:/sbin/rc reboot
#z6:6:respawn:/sbin/sulogin
.
.
.
x:a:once:/etc/X11/startDM.sh # last line
---
/etc/rc.conf:
# What display manager do you use ? [ xdm | gdm | kdm | entrance ]
DISPLAYMANAGER="kdm"
.
.
.
XSESSION="icewm"
----
rc-update show:
.
.
.
xdm | default
------
After the boot process ended I find myself at the console login
and runlevel 5 is running...but no X and therefore no xdm/kdm.
When start kdm as root by hand, X starts, then kdm and after login
icewm is running...so far so nice. But why does boot ignore me ? ;)
Keep hacking!
