I have just discovered that the wallpaper referenced by the kdm configuration file did not exist on my system (due to a screw up by me). As a result, the failure to redisplay the kdm dialog when ending a session seems to be as a result of this missing file. Now I have corrected that issue, a proper dialog is displayed when I end the session.
However, the other problems still partially remain. A crtl-alt-F1 the first time whilst kdm is displaying the login dialog correctly gets me to a text console. However, returning to VT7 shows a screen which has lost horizontal sync (ie is scrolling sideways rapidly) and which the bottom half of the screen is blank (but apparently wrapped around into the top half). Once I had got into this mode, ctrl-alt-F1 no longer gets me back to a text console. -- Alan Chandler http://www.chandlerfamily.org.uk -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
