Hi, Remove the -nodaemon string.

If I goto tty0 I now have the message: ..<time>.. kdm[130]: no modules loaded for `kde' service and in bot /var/log/XFree86.0.log and kdm.log it has this message repeated about 4 times a second: AUDIT: ..<time>..: 124 XFree86: client 2 rejected from local host I searched on google for the above messages and found some discussion about PAM problems. I looked at pam.conf and noticed that xdm and gdm were listed in there, but not kdm. So I added an identical section for kdm but it doesn't seem to have made any difference. If I remove the kdm stuff from ttys and get a command line login I can run startx and KDE comes up just fine. Was there something else I needed to configure for KDM to run correctly?
