Package: kdm
Version: 4:4.3.0-2
Severity: normal
Hi,
I recently installed kdm, and I noticed the following behaviour: Initially
kdm would load the X server and I could log in. However, after logging out
it would not start the X server again; instead I would see in the logs:
kdm[2572]: X server for display :0 terminated unexpectedly
kdm[2572]: Unable to fire up local display :0; disabling.
Thanks to a bit of digging around on the web, I found out that I could fix
this problem by adding the following option to /etc/kde4/kdm/kdmrc:
TerminateServer=true
I'm not sure if the best way to fix this is to make this the default, or
to somehow prevent the X server from terminating when the user logs out, but
in any case this is a problem with the default settings that should be
fixed.
Thanks,
Vasilis
