Public bug reported: Binary package hint: kdm
I am using 64-bit Jaunty Kubuntu. Ever since upgrading to 4.2.3, I can predictably crash my machine by editing a single text file. I discovered this while attempting to update my sources.list file. I ran the following command: sudo kate /etc/apt/sources.list Once I done that, a dialog box came up that said: "Could not start ksmserver. Check your installation." If I click "okay" on that dialog box, I am dumped right back to the KDM login screen. If I do not click okay, I can continue using my machine normally without problems. I can repeat this error with 100% accuracy.
