Re: Unable to login using KDE

  I am debugging a (seemingly) KDE-related problem on a FreeBSD laptop.
  The version of FreeBSD is 6.1-RELEASE-p10 #0. I am starting in in
  debug mode. It is using kdm as a login screen. The corresponding line
  in /etc/ttys is
 
  ttyv8 /usr/local/bin/kdm -nodaemon xterm on secure
 
  The problem is: when I type the username and password and try to login
  it returns me to the login screen again.

 What are the contents of your ~/.xsession? Check ~/.xsession-errors as
 well.

Do you use alpha-numeric symbols only in your password? The keyboard layout 
in kde might be different, so the same keys can generate different input. 
Try something simple and see if it works.

Unable to login using KDE

2007-04-26 Thread Ivan \Rambius\ Ivanov

Hello,

I am debugging a (seemingly) KDE-related problem on a FreeBSD laptop.
The version of FreeBSD is 6.1-RELEASE-p10 #0. I am starting in in
debug mode. It is using kdm as a login screen. The corresponding line
in /etc/ttys is

ttyv8 /usr/local/bin/kdm -nodaemon xterm on secure

The problem is: when I type the username and password and try to login
it returns me to the login screen again. I am 100% sure that I use
correct passwords since I changed them for a couple of accounts. I am
able to login from the text terminals.

There are two suspicious messages when the machine is booted. The first one is:

Information: reading old kdmrc /usr/local/share/config/kdm/kdmrc (from
kde = 2.2.x)
Information: old kdmrc is from kde = 3.1 (config version 2.3)

The second one is:

kdm_config[543]: Host some gibberish text not found

and it is repeated four times with a different gibberish text.

I googled for these errors but found nothing.

I would be very grateful for any advice or pointers.

Regards
Rambius
