Ok, here's the answer to your xdm problem. When I build Slack/390, I was on a system that used a virtual QDIO device. QDIO/QETH requires IPV6 support. IPV6 was enabled as a kernel module, not in the kernel. If you do a "modprobe ipv6" to load IPV6, you should be able to start xdm. If you want to do this on a permanent basis, edit /etc/rc.d/rc.modules to add: /sbin/modprobe ipv6
Three things you need to remember for xdm: Edit /etc/X11/xdm/xdm-config to comment out the last line. Edit /etc/X11/Xaccess to _uncomment_ the line with "any host can get a login window" Edit /etc/X11/Xservers to comment out the last line. I'm finding that on a 64MB guest, KDE won't start. All sorts of "abends" in all sorts of programs. The system I developed on had 128MB, so you may need to have that much "real" storage.
