I am building a new installation and must have messed up a step as gdm doesn't start from boot
If I manually execute eselect rc restart xdm I get Sep 25 20:10:51 newlap gnome-keyring-daemon[2106]: couldn't create socket directory: No such file or directory Sep 25 20:10:51 newlap gnome-keyring-daemon[2106]: couldn't bind to control socket: /root/.cache/keyring-dJpHuM/control: No such file or directory which appears to be the problem and can also be found in /log/messages I have installed xorg-x11, xdm and gnome and /var/log/Xorg.0.log looks OK. The only complaints are failing to load vesa, modsetting, and fbdev drivers. However, the intel driver loads fine. /var/log/dmesg ends with entries saying that EXT4-fs mounted filesystems. No gdm/xdm/X/keyring complaints. What step did I miss? thanks, allan
