Running the script twice doesn't help, neither does waiting. But I've found a workaround: I only have to add the line export HOME=/root to /etc/init.d/kdm. Apparently, that lame kyro-driver somehow requires that the HOME variable is set and crashes otherwise. I don't think that not setting the HOME variable before login is an error of Debian. thanks for your help, Christoph -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
