Save the file, reboot.  Of course, you need to have KDE installed.



Shouldn't have to reboot.  'kill -HUP 1'   should do it. If not,
'shutdown now', hit return,   followed by ^D will do it ...
  


This is even easier to remember:

# init q

It's the same for 'kill -HUP 1'

well...not really.

init q is specific to init.

kill -HUP {pid}

is the standard unix way to tell {pid} to reload its configuration file. Most 
apps handle the HUP signal specifically.

Kdm at boot

2004-02-06 Thread Edd Barrett
What is the correct way of starting kdm at boot? I have tried echo
/usr/local/bin/kdm  /etc/rc.local , but this causes the system to hang.
kdm works fine if executed on a root shell. Someone told me to do a wait 5
 kdm, but i see this as a bodge.

Thanks

In /etc/ttys I have:

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

edit /etc/ttys, and change xdm to the appropiate kdm path.

Re: starting kdm on boot

2002-07-25 Thread Siegbert Baude

Hi Ed,


 Does anyone know how to start kdm at boot?
 I changed /etc/ttys file to have
 ttyv8 /usr/local/bin/kdm  xterm on secure and it
 works but I get
 kdm[1524]: Unknown command line option 'ttyv8'..

 I did a little search online and it seems that it was
 not fixable. Does anyone else have any idea?

That's harmless. The procedure of init seems to be adopted to xdm, which
accepts this parameter. kdm doesn't know about this, therefore claims
the fact, but otherwise just works fine (at least for me).

Do you have problems with kdm not working as expected?

Ciao
Siegbert

Re: starting kdm on boot

2002-07-25 Thread Ed Yu

Hi, Siegbert:
  Thanks for the reply. No, KDM works fine. The
message is annoying since I log console messages to
/var/log/console.log. 
  But can you please point me to how kdm was called
(who uses /etc/ttys and call these getty programs)? A
pointer to the source code or a script? I would either
fix kdm or write a wrapper to get rid of that.

thanx,
ed
