Package: wdm
Version: 1.28-2.3
Severity: important
Hi,
sometimes I cannot log in using Wdm, I can write only Login name but I
cannot get to a password field - Enter doesn't work.
As a workaround, I must to Zap (Ctrl-Alt-Backspace) and try again. And
after few times - 4x for example, it works. What a magic!
I use WindowMaker, if this info helps.
I can paste some messages from syslog if they make sense:
Mar 25 21:01:21 edc wdm: /etc/X11/wdm/Xresources_0: line 1:
/etc/X11/wdm/Xresources_0: Permission denied
Mar 25 21:01:21 edc wdm: /etc/X11/wdm/Xresources_0: line 2: syntax error near
unexpected token `newline'
Mar 25 21:01:21 edc wdm: /etc/X11/wdm/Xresources_0: line 2: `!'
Mar 25 21:01:21 edc wdm: Cannot open config file. Using builtin defaults
I would like to add that I didn't touch anything in /etc/X11/wdm...
What else should I check?
Regards,
Lada

Thanks for the info. I am marking this bug as indirectly closed by
xserver-xorg-core upload that first used udev instead of hal.
Hope this does not reassign this bug report to xserver-xorg. Will reassign
it back if so.
Cheers,
