Also created the .xsessions file in the users home directory.

The file is ~/.xsession, without an s at the end. I assume
that csh is your login shell. Put these in your ~/.xsession:


        #!/bin/csh
        source ~/.cshrc
        exec ~/.xinitrc

This sources your individual user setting from .cshrc and the
executes .xinitrc (trivial, isn't it?) to control how the startuo
of your xsession will go.

Make sure both files (.xinitrc and .xsession) are +x attribute.


Keep getting this console error message hundreds of times

init: getty repeating too quickly on port /dev/ttyv8, sleeping 30 second

Hey, I saw this one... but I'm not sure how I solved it. Is your
/etc/hosts and hostname set correctly? I think it was something
like this, something I would never had put in any combination
with X...


By the way, in order to try if xdm is working correctly it can be
started directly by the command "xdm" anytime.





I had ~/.xsession spelled correctly in the directory. Just typo error in email. Changed the contents of ~/.xsession as you posted. Still no joy.
/etc/hosts file is correct.

Running release 7.0. When i enter xdm on command line of root nothing happens. ps ax command shows no xdm running.

Still getting error msg
