I just installed Ubuntu LTS 8.04.2 server and upgraded it to a
desktop. However, the
computer only has a text capabable monitor (640x480) on it.
I changed gdm.conf to allow external connections and connect to it
from a BSD system
(MacOS X 10.5). When I connect with X Windows, I get a login menu. No
matter what I
select, I can enter my username and password with no problem.
If I select FVWM or KDE, any text I enter into a dialog box, or in
Terminal works fine.
If I select (or default to) gnome, I can't enter any text. For example
"dfg" becomes "124".
If I ssh in and set my display variable to the correct session and
then start an Xterm, or a
Konsole, again, they work fine if I have FVWM or KDE up and do not
work with gnome.
Any ideas?
Thanks, Geoff.
