Did you check /var/log/xdm-errors? That is the first place to check in the event of trouble. Secondly, did you try to start xdm when you already had an X session running? If so, that is a mistake. -- John Goerzen | Running Debian GNU/Linux (www.debian.org) Custom Programming | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
