I installed mine differently, ie everything > into /usr, no env vars, no /etc/kde sysconf dir and such ... I did also have kde installed to /usr. I have used prefix=/usr for all packages. I have found out that KDM does indeed need its own usr/group. I now have kdm working as I can now login and boot the machine to run level 5 from inittab and it works. I have a Console kit error dialog on login saying Warning: Cannot open ConsoleKit session: Unable to execute program /usr/lib/dbus-1.0/dbus-daemon-launch-helper: Success This I have traced to dbus not started, but I have dbus starting run the init scripts at boot through the blfs-bootscripts. Also in the kdm log it has klauncher kdemain: No DBUS session-bus found. Check if you have started the DBUS server. I know that dbus is indeed started but how does one check to see if a dbus session exists? This is what I think this problem resolves to. If anyone has a link to all this dbus stuff I would like to get that so I can read up on dbus. Also I heard but have not been able to confirm that ConsoleKit is not required anymore as PolicyKit has all the ConsoleKit stuff. Can anyone confirm this? -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
