I tried your suggestion, but kdm still crashes because of the undefined symbol. It seems that the crash happens even before the files in /etc/kde2/kdm are executed at all :-(((( > but don't ask me why! According to the man page, this turns off the access control. Hmm, don't know what this has to do with xdmcp. I think the XdmcpWrapperToOddParity is really not compiled into the binary distribution of XF4.2: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/X11R6/lib# objdump -t libX11.so.6.2 | grep dmcp [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/X11R6/lib# I also tried to compile my own Xfree 4.2 from source, but the same thing happens... Currently I'm recompiling kdebase-2.2.2 (which includes kdm) from woody, maybe that helps... > If you just need XF 4.2 to support new hardware, just grap the Xxserv.tgz > and Xmods.tgz binaries from xfree86.org, install them over your debian > install (in /usr/X11R6), and put a few packages in hold state into dselect: Yes, that's what finally did. > and you will be able to live for a few weeks until XF4.2 arrives in sid... Let's hope it's only a few weeks (Branden says the XFree 4.2 packages won't be available until woody is finished....).
