When starting /usr/local/bin/kdm (e.g. from /etc/ttys), this starts kdm-bin
(KDM window manager)
but also a local X server.
On a server machine this often is not needed.
How to configure xdm to not start a local X server?
So far I came up only with
# vi /usr/local/share/config/kdm/kdmrc
ServerCmd
kdm just always sets this flag. How to get rid of it?

On my portable I have a non-US keyboard (a european country layout),
in KDE I can set it to the appropriate keyboard layout.

Sounds like a DNS problem (yes, I know,
ser.
If I enable kdm in /etc/ttys, I get the kdm login screen, and if I login with
a non-root account, the display just stays at it's default background until I
kill it with CNTRL-ALT-BACKSPACE.
At the kdm login screen, if I login as root, the kde desktop loads and starts
just fine.
I've been battling this on and off (mostly off) since April.
If I put exec startkde in .xesession in a non-root folder and I enable xdm
in /etc/ttys, I can log into xorg's xdm and kde starts just fine -- even as a
non-root user.
If I enable kdm in /etc/ttys, I get the kdm login scre
I'm using FreeBSD 4.10 with a custom kernel. I have two problems:
1) If ACPI support activated, my fdc0 does not work (the kernel can not reserve I/O
port addresses for it). Without ACPI, everything works OK, but:

You don't need do this to get kdm working. Only if you want it to start at
boot. I suggest you do this when you get kdm working properly, not before.
