Hi all, with the recent kdm ist's still not possible to login from our X11-terminals.
On the terminals we run: root 12042 1 1 2006 ? 14:29:21 /usr/bin/X11/Xorg -config /etc/X11/xorg.conf.ixxie :0 vt07 -dpi 100 -indirect up.dfn.de with 'up.dfn.de' being the NFS-Server for the diskless terminals where an xdm is running which provides the chooser for the terminals. Everything works fine when selecting one of our sarge hosts from the chooser, but it's not possible to log in to a recent etch system with kdm 3.5.5a.dfsg.1-5. On my etch system named 'bunny' I run [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# ps -ef | grep bin/X root 19960 19958 1 16:02 tty7 00:00:59 /usr/bin/X -br :0 vt7 -auth /var/run/xauth/A:0-hXsyh7 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# ps -ef | grep kdm root 19958 1 0 16:02 ? 00:00:00 /usr/bin/kdm -config /var/run/kdm/kdmrc [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# grep -i serverargs /var/run/kdm/kdmrc ServerArgsLocal= #ServerArgsRemote= The system 'bunny' shows up in the chooser window on the X-terminals but when it is selected the X-cursor is shown for about 15 seconds and then the chooser comes back instead of the login-window from 'bunny'.

I even removed the 'nolisten' flag as you can see above so this seems to be a slightly different problem. BTW: runnig 'X -query bunny' on the X-terminal works so I'm pretty shure the setup on 'bunny' (kdmrc and Xaccess) is ok. But what's the difference when using the chooser? There are no error-messages in /var/log/xdm.log on the NFS/xdm/chooser-server so I'm a bit lost here. Thanx for any hints what to try next...
