Hello List After installing a new version of gdm (1.0.0-9) I have a problem. When it starts, I see the gray X root window and a mouse but nothing more happens. A ps gives the following output:
276 ? S 0:00 /usr/sbin/gdm 283 ? S 0:01 \_ /usr/bin/X11/X -auth /var/state/gdm/authdir/:0.xauth :0 The /var/state/gdm/:0.log (why isn't it in /var/log ?) tells me: AUDIT: Tue Aug 24 14:55:40 1999: 283 X: client 1 rejected from local host Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server Xlib: Client is not authorized to connect to Server Why ? The following directory structure seems ok, too. The config file is the one that was distributed. drwxr-xr-x root root 1024 Aug 20 17:44 /etc/gdm drwxr-xr-x root root 1024 Aug 20 17:44 /etc/gdm/Sessions -rwxr-xr-x root root 34 May 27 03:11 /etc/gdm/Sessions/Debian -rwxr-xr-x root root 3386 May 27 03:11 /etc/gdm/Sessions/Gnome drwxr-xr-x root root 1024 Aug 20 17:44 /etc/gdm/Init -rwxr-xr-x root root 50 Aug 16 21:17 /etc/gdm/Init/:0 -rwxr-xr-x root root 93 Aug 12 22:34 /etc/gdm/Init/Default drwxr-xr-x root root 1024 May 27 03:10 /etc/gdm/PreSession drwxr-xr-x root root 1024 May 27 03:10 /etc/gdm/PostSession -rw-r--r-- root root 1000 Aug 16 21:13 /etc/gdm/gdm.conf Any suggestions ? read you, -christian- -- Linux - the choice of the GNU generation.
