Package: wdm Version: 1.27-2.1 Severity: normal
I found the follwing errors in my syslog: Jan 24 08:14:08 lep1 wdm: /etc/X11/wdm/Xresources_0: line 1: /etc/X11/wdm/Xresources_0: Permission denied Jan 24 08:14:08 lep1 wdm: /etc/X11/wdm/Xresources_0: line 2: syntax error near unexpected token newline' Jan 24 08:14:08 lep1 wdm: /etc/X11/wdm/Xresources_0: line 2: !' Jan 24 08:14:08 lep1 wdm: Cannot open config file. Using builtin defaults I get these errors also for /etc/X11/wdm/Xresources if I connect using XDHCP. Both file were unmodified from the debian distribution. It looks like wdm try to execute these files instead of sending them to xrdb as it should. I found that the follwing quick fix helps: 1. Make /etc/X11/wdm/Xresources* excutable (mode 755). 2. Put the following line on the top of these files. #!/usr/bin/X11/xrdb -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.8-2-686 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE= (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages wdm depends on: ii debconf 1.4.42 Debian configuration management sy ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-20 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libfontconfig1 2.2.3-4 generic font configuration library ii libice6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-10 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libpam-modules 0.76-22 Pluggable Authentication Modules f ii libpam-runtime 0.76-22 Runtime support for the PAM librar ii libpam0g 0.76-22 Pluggable Authentication Modules l ii libsm6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-10 X Window System Session Management ii libwraster3 0.91.0-6 Shared libraries of Window Maker r ii libx11-6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-10 X Window System protocol client li ii libxext6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-10 X Window System miscellaneous exte ii libxft2 2.1.2-6 FreeType-based font drawing librar ii libxmu6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-10 X Window System miscellaneous util ii psmisc 21.5-1 Utilities that use the proc filesy ii xbase-clients 4.3.0.dfsg.1-10 miscellaneous X clients ii xlibs 4.3.0.dfsg.1-10 X Keyboard Extension (XKB) configu ii xutils 4.3.0.dfsg.1-10 X Window System utility programs -- debconf information: * shared/default-x-display-manager: wdm wdm/daemon_name: /usr/bin/X11/wdm -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
