Currently using Edgy with xen. Came across a lock up on my monitor. Upon 
checking the logs, I found similar messages. 
First off,  "Can't open default user face" is because the default faces are 
missing. Specifically,  I did the following:

<CODE>
cd /usr/share/apps/kdm/faces/
ln -s ../pics/users/root1.png root.face.icon
ln -s ../pics/users/default2.png .default.face.icon
</CODE>

Issue solved on that message.

Earlier, I had no issues with kdm (or was not aware of any :) ). But when 
looking though the log files, I noticed that the corruption occurs in the tls 
arena:
<TEXT>
*** glibc detected *** -:0: double free or corruption (fasttop): 0x08076c68 ***
======= Backtrace: =========
/lib/tls/i686/cmov/nosegneg/libc.so.6[0xb7df52ad]
/lib/tls/i686/cmov/nosegneg/libc.so.6(__libc_free+0x84)[0xb7df5434]
/lib/libpam.so.0(_pam_free_data+0x65)[0xb7ee22c5]
/lib/libpam.so.0(pam_end+0x39)[0xb7ee1c79]
</TEXT>

So I did the standard fix for Xen and the tls; basically, I moved it out of the 
way:
<CODE>
mv /lib/tls /lib/tls.disabled
</CODE>


This seems to get rid of the kdm mem corrptn issue. But it does not solve my 
input lock ups (even though it appears that the input is being grabbed). 

happy hunting.
