Subject: Entrance can't load any WM with Xorg7

Hi. I can't post on e-users list (they say i'm spam), so i sent this to
you. Sorry. If maybe you could forward it to the list for the time my
account is not working, i'd appreciate. Thx

Problems, again :p

First, entrance. Entrance starts ok, i tuned the
data/config/build_config.sh as follows (just putting what i changed)

ecore_config -c $DB  -k /entrance/auth -i 2
# i use shadow auth

ecore_config -c $DB -k /entrance/date_format -s "%A %e %B, %Y"
# that's the french disposition, if anyone insterested

ecore_config -c $DB -k /entrance/greeting/before -s "Bienvenue sur"

ecore_config -c $DB -k /entrance/session/1/icon -s "enlightenment.png"
ecore_config -c $DB -k /entrance/session/1/title -s "E17"
ecore_config -c $DB -k /entrance/session/1/session -s
"/usr/local/bin/enlightenment"

ecore_config -c $DB -k /entrance/session/2/session -s "/usr/bin/wmaker"
ecore_config -c $DB -k /entrance/session/2/title -s "WindowMaker"
ecore_config -c $DB -k /entrance/session/2/icon -s "kde.png"

ecore_config -c $DB -k /entranced/xserver -s "/usr/bin/X -config
/etc/X11/xorg.conf -quiet -nolisten tcp vt7"
# Xorg 7 changes paths. Here's the new one. I don't know why but i had
to add the -c option; entranced was not using the config file.

ecore_config -c $DB -k /entranced/attempts -i 5 # what does this do anyway?

Then i run it: sudo /etc/init.d/entrance start
Entrance runs ok, looks normal. But when i try to login (either in
wmaker or enlightenment) entrance quits but, a few seconds later, comes
again. So basically nothing happens. Here's what i found in
/var/log/deamons.log

Jul  7 17:14:40 dwarknode entranced: Starting X server.
Jul  7 17:14:40 dwarknode entranced: Starting Entrance.
Jul  7 17:14:56 dwarknode entrance: entranced: Requesting auth for uid
1000 (/home/ethernode)
Jul  7 17:14:56 dwarknode entrance: Executing /usr/local/bin/enlightenment
Jul  7 17:14:56 dwarknode entrance: Starting session for user "ethernode".
Jul  7 17:14:56 dwarknode entrance: entrance_ipc_shutdown: Success
Jul  7 17:14:56 dwarknode entrance: Replacing Entrance with simple login
program to wait for session end.
Jul  7 17:15:02 dwarknode entrance_login[11650]: Wrong number of
arguments: 2! # this is supposed to be my best info source...

???? Any idea? Where shall i find more info (entrance log?)

When i run startx (with ~/.xinitrc containing "exec enlightenment")
everything runs fine (i'm under e17 right now)... I don't understand
what's the problem. I use archlinux, Xorg7 (arch default), and
yesterday's cvs.

Btw if anyone could explain how the /etc/X11/Xsession and
/etc/X11/sessions (or Sessions for Xorg<7)  story works, .... Or if it
does... I'd appreciate. But the hard coding is fine to me.

Thx

PS: the e17_updater script (by Andrew Sevcsik) is great but has two pbs:
you have to do everything as root (or install as user; is it safe to
install e17 as user?), and the installation prefix doesn't work for all
of the installed elements...

FLorent
