I think i go a bit closer to my problem with the login via a display manager: I tried several login managers, and with allo of them trying to login as user brings me into nirwana.
Now, i tried to login as root (+ passwd) via Slim and voilĂ , it worked! So, my suspect here - but without any idea how to "repair": since i had to do a downgrade (to be able to use the fglrx driver!) from ascii to jessie, i did a fresh install, but i left the /home untouched by the partition program of the installer (although i redefined it as /home) because i wanted to keep the user settings i did before. Now, the home works yes, but may be there is something that should be done in addition to get it completely integrated? When i do startx the .xinitrc line 'exec: jwm' (or startlxde or openbox) is read correctly and X is started with the respective desktop environment. _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list [email protected] https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
