Suggestions:
Try posting this to an X-Windows discussion group, eg: news:comp.os.linux.x,
as well. It's rather specific to that issue.
Simplify the problem. Try running X, xrdb, etc., without the
intervention of xdm. 'startx' from the console command line. I
personally don't use an X

Same problem with my potato box.
I have changed in the /etc/inittab the default runlevel to 5
id:5:initdefault:
and all works fine.
I'm not sure that 5 is the right runlevel for xdm, but it works and let
me use tty1 too, but not the other (tty2-10, xdm start on tty11).

Hi, I had this happen to me. The problem is that you have something
incorrect in your XF86Config file. You should look in the xdm-errors
file mine is in /var/log/xdm-errors. This file will tell you what the
error is and tell you what line of the XF86Config file it is in.
I hope this helps.

Am in the process of getting a new box up & running. Am wondering if
there is a "simple" (relatively so) x manager that I can use. I plan to
be at the clinic 3rd sat this month with the new unit and -hopefully-
some stuff to load onto it. Thanks in advance, Dennis

Well, I'm not sure if I understand what you are trying to do, but
with a RH4.0 set-up all I did was set the init level to 5 to start up
xdm.

hmm. i moved /etc/init.d/xdm to a safe place, rebooted, copied the new
kernel & modules from the other machine, rebooted & made minor
