ldm doesn't by default have an init script like gdm/kdm/xdm/wdm, since it was intended to be started from ltsp's init scripts. so you'll need an init script, or to start it directly from /etc/inittab. there's an example init script in /usr/share/doc/ldm/ that i did years ago as a proof of concept, though i suspect the syntax for ldm has changed somewhat. the init script will need to export a handful of variables that you'd typically get from lts.conf. take a look at /usr/share/ltsp/screen.d/ldm to get an idea for some of those variables. maybe even writing a wrapper script around the screen script would be the way to go. good luck, it's an adventure! live well, vagrant ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
