- Start g/x/kdm directly from a shell window and see if it reports and problems. - grep your `ps ax` for kdm. If gdm doesn't start, it pops a dialog and even if you're at a remote terminal, the process for this dialog shows up. kdm might be do something similar. - If your server is headless, it might not start because it wants a pointer device, so you have to set it not to start a local copy. This is done with gdmconfig for gdm, you should use kdm's analog. ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by: Jabber - The world's fastest growing real-time communications platform!
