If GDM isn't working properly you need to look for indications as to why it is not, in /var/log/gdm and /var/log/messages.
You don't mention whether you looked there or not.

I can not see any error in /var/opt/SUNWut/log/messages. Looks like GDM is
not running properly. I can see the Error message on Sun Ray Client that is
26B. Means unable to present GUI interface.

Subject: Re: [SunRay-Users] gdm-XKeepsCrashing: GDM can't start X server

Hello everyone from the list,

It's my first attempt to answer a question (read a lot to learn things
about the Sun Rays), so forgive me if I'm repeating another one.

I've just setup a CentOS 5.2 (x86_64) and ran into the same problem than
  Nadeem Ahmad : X keeps crashing.

The logs for gdm and the X server that it starts is in /var/log/gdm/:xx.log, with "xx" being the display number started. Sun
Rays normally start at 10.

In my case, I had messages like this one :

/opt/SUNWut/lib/Xnewt: error while loading shared libraries:
libXfont.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

It seems that the default install of CentOS 5.3 does not install
libXfont, you can install it with a :

yum install libXfont

And that solved the problem for me.

Hope this helps,

Didier.

Bob Doolittle a écrit :

Actually, with SRSS 4.1 we only use Sun's GDM with SLES 10, not with

RHEL 5. The RHEL distro shipped a version of GDM that was sufficiently

recent as to pick up the changes we pushed to the main branch to support

dynamic display creation (I think the SLES version had that change as

well but it had some other significant bug so we deemed it better to

continue to use our own version in that environment).

It is true however that we've only tested with and support RHEL 5 Update

1, not Update 2.

You could first use a supported distro (or binary equivilent), then

use the Sun Ray provided GDM as others don't always have the necessary

fixes to allow it to run multiple instances of gdm at once. Either

that or wait for an answer from someone who has got it working on an

unsupported version of a binary compatible version of RHEL 5.1, which

would be CentOS 5.1, not 5.2.

Why aren't you running the Sun provided GDM?
