I was curious (yes, that's part of the problem:) and decided to try gdm instead of cde-login. So I did: svcadm disable cde-login svcadm enable gdm
All seemed well (Hey - new login screen!) until I found a need to do ctrl+alt+backspace, which left my keyboard in up/down event mode. Had to ssh from another machine and run: /usr/openwin/bin/kdb_mode -a to make the console usable again. [1] This didn't happen when cde-login was handling the startup of Xorg for me, so I guess there is some session startup magic in cde-login that we need to port over into the gdm config, right? Anyone know what needs to be done? [ 1: And please don't take away kdb_mode when CDE goes "poof" ] This message posted from opensolaris.org
