sdm doesn't start anything by default. it's a little different from your typical display manager. how are you starting sdm? what sort of environment is this being run in? > ...wm's installed: you mean "dm's", i suspect :) > a45:~# dpkg -l |grep -i "display manager" > ii gdm 2.13.0.10-2 GNOME Display Manager > ii gdm-themes 0.5 Themes for the GNOME Display Manager > ii kde-kdm-themes 3.4-1 Themes for the K Display Manager > ii kdm 3.5.2-1 X display manager for KDE > ii libxdmcp-dev 6.9.0.dfsg.1-5 X Display Manager Control Protocol > library d > ii libxdmcp6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-5 X Display Manager Control Protocol > library > ii sdm 0.4.0b-3 Secure Display Manager - secure > remote acces > ii sdm-terminal 0.4.0b-3 Secure Display Manager - terminal > files > ii wdm 1.28-2.1 WINGs Display Manager - an xdm > replacement w > ii xdm 6.9.0.dfsg.1-5 X display manager this looks like you have sdm-terminal and sdm installed on the same machine. typically, you would install the sdm package on the application server(i.e. your remote server), and install sdm-terminal where you are running the X server. i typically run sdm from /etc/inittab, something like this: sdm:45:respawn:/usr/sbin/sdm and in /etc/sdm/sdm.config: xserver="/usr/bin/X11/X vt9" if you wanted it on vt9... hope that helps, and thanks for trying out sdm! live well, vagrant -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
