Over the last few years I have found this on several Debian computers
and occasionaly also on an Ubuntu PC:
When booting to a graphical user interface using the displaymanagers
mentioned in the subject line, I end up with a computer that does not
respond to any keyboard action on the login screen.

My displaymanager is wdm on Debian Etch system.
Because my X Window crashes frequently

I must to start X Window with:

but can't. I can only start X wit

I am using wdm as an alternative to xdm as the display manager.

Okay - only other thoughts kicking around are:
1) Delete and recreate from scratch with your favourite editor the
.xsession file, in case somehow there is a stray non-printing character
that is mucking up wdm in the handoff.
2) Make sure that there isn't anything like

interpretation of the rest of the file.
Lose #!/bin/bash and place anything you do feel you need to declare into
.xsession, and see if that helps.

Another thingy: when I test starting X with xdm instead of wdm, all
works well. So I'm starting to wonder if wdm read
cters in the file, I presume. If you copy it to be
.xinitrc and do "startx -- :" from a console, does
it work for you? Would you remember which file was written first - yours
or the other one?

For a while, I thought perhaps the fact that wdm offers a menu out
of which the window manager can be chosen makes an .xsession file
superfluous (if that's the correct word), but then why does it work
with that one user?

I am trying to make WDM work on my Debian (potato) box. After having

Be wary of that. I believe that the -G option *resets* the extra groups
(not the defualt group); so, if ssahmed was previously a member of,say
audio, that will be undone.

Yes, you do have to run the window manager explicitly if you use an
.xsession file
I am running Debian 2.1 with all updates (nothing as yet
from the unstable area) and am having this bizarre problem
with my .xsession file.
I am using Wdm 1.0-7 and WindowMaker 0.20.3-5. WindowMaker
has been specified as the default window manager by moving
its entry to the top of the /etc/X11
but I mainly use it for netscape and connecing to an NT

log into using WDM. Sometimes, however, I want to connect to one of the

My question is, how? With the X Terminals we have, there is a chooser
app to select the

Hi Folks,

Now, that was a while ago, but I

Hi all!
Please please please someone send me an /etc/init.d/wdm from Slink!
Also, under which sequence code number does it start? Could you

Thanks a lot!
