Hello List,
My problem is that when I try to log in using a desktop manager like
XDM/KDM/GDM some keys won't work while some others work just fine. When
starting X11 using "startx" the problem won't occur.
I put the Xorg log file and my xorg.conf file on my server. If anyone

fairly modest set of module updates. Searching on the day and time concerned

I've set up a VDR-box (http://freevo.sourceforge.net/) under
Debian. I'd like the box to go directly into an X session upon
booting, without having to fill in password and username in xdm.
I know how to do this kdm/kde but running kde for that one feature
seems like an awful waste.
Ideas?

After recently getting used to the Blackbox WM i decided i'd try to replace
all my KDE apps because they seem more CPU intensive (due to extra KDE
proceses?) than other apps.
Problem is that i've installed Kdm, not because i needed it.. but just
because i thought it was quite convinient when u
The only thing I can suggest is to check your Xservers file under /etc/X11/kdm
or xdm. It should have only one uncommented line looking something like this
:0 local /usr/X11R6/bin/X :0 vt7 (could be slightly different)

I have kdm kick up two login screens on vt7 and vt8 at boot up.
However, within 5 minutes of booting the screen switches from vt8 to vt7
and blacks out vt8. vt8 is still working fine, but I need to refresh
the screen. This is a minor problem except that sometimes it causes my
screen to lock caus

That's the reason. If you want to start kdm instead, change it to
start-kdm.

Hi,
I have got kde installed, but I never configured my systems to use
kdm. In my /etc/X11/config, I still have the line start-xdm. and even I
do a ps, I can only see xdm running, and no kdm. But when I shutdown my
linux box,
I got the message:
Shut down the kdm display manager

I do not remember quite exactly the process how I managed to do it, but it
worked ...
Well, you have to set up two independent directories - /etc/X11/xdm and
/etc/X11/kdm (you can copy /etc/X11/xdm to /etc/X11/kdm
Hi,
I want to run xdm on vt7, and kdm on vt8. So how do I do it?
Also, how do I force all my users to use /etc/X11/Xsession, rather
than ~/.xsession??
Thanks.

Okay, here's one I haven't seen mention of...
I'd like to have 2 login screens come up when kdm (or xdm) starts up - one
that I can log in as root on, and another for my normal user account (which I
use most often). I've seen reference to multiple displays in the X docs, but
it isn't very clear o

Well, that is a bit extreme. don't worry about shutting down the X
server. when the tty on which the X server is running is active, you
can switch to other tty's by using Control-LeftAlt-Fx, where x is the
number of a different tty (presumably a text console).

This may be kind of extreme, but I can get out of XWindows (xdm)
using the Ctr-Alt-BackSpace sequence that forces a reset. Then, at
some critical point during the reset, you can use the LeftAlt-RightArrow
sequence to switch to a different tty.

Hello all,
I am running debian 2.0 with KDE (relaltively new user)...
I recently upgraded all of my X11 packages, and somehow ended up with XDM

the thing is, I would really rather not be "forced" into Xwindow on
bootup, and would prefer to be able to start it (a
-installing all the packages I
had installed prior to the crash, I thought I was ok. However, xdm/kdm just
refuse to work properly. When an X server makes a broadcast XDMCP query, [x|k]dm
responds and I get a login window, I log in, and the X server resets. And I
don't see much in the way of [x|k]dm

After the login on XDM/KDM it starts a window manager, and it is this window
manager that is probably crashing and causing the display manager to reappear.
Try and edit the first line in /etc/X11/window-managers it is this line

i m a novice user of debian-Linux. The installation was easy, and
everythink works well :-).
Now i installed the KDE-desktop on the box. The KDE is working well,

Xserver starts, asks for login but after login it seems t
