Package: slim Version: 1.3.1-8 Severity: important I am using slim on a fresh Debian Squeeze install. The install in question is a Debian Live CD image created with the "standard-x11" package list and running in persistent mode (this should make it equivalent to a standard Squeeze install with just Xorg, no DE / WM installed). I installed xfce4 package and then installed the slim package.
I then do sudo init 1 followed by sudo init 5 to restart the X server (or, alternatively, restart the computer). Slim comes up and I am able to login normally. The first program I open runs. Every program after that fails with an MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE error. "xhosts +" reports "cannot open display :0.0". To avoid this and get a working X configuration, I disabled slim by running "sudo insserv -r slim." X runs fine after that without a display manager. Have not tried other display managers so am not sure if this error occurs in them as well. -- System Information: Debian Release: 6.0 APT prefers stable APT policy: (700, 'stable'), (600, 'unstable'), (500, 'squeeze-updates') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-486 Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages slim depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.36.1 Debian configuration management sy ii libc6 2.11.2-10 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libgcc1 1:4.4.5-8 GCC support library ii libjpeg62 6b1-1 The Independent JPEG Group's JPEG ii libpam0g 1.1.1-6.1 Pluggable Authentication Modules l ii libpng12-0 1.2.44-1 PNG library - runtime ii libstdc++6 4.4.5-8 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libx11-6 2:1.3.3-4 X11 client-side library ii libxft2 2.1.14-2 FreeType-based font drawing librar ii libxmu6 2:1.0.5-2 X11 miscellaneous utility library Versions of packages slim recommends: ii xterm 261-1 X terminal emulator Versions of packages slim suggests: pn scrot <none> (no description available) -- Configuration Files: /etc/slim.conf changed: default_path /usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/local/games:/usr/games default_xserver /usr/bin/X11/X xserver_arguments -nolisten tcp halt_cmd /sbin/shutdown -h now reboot_cmd /sbin/shutdown -r now console_cmd /usr/bin/xterm -C -fg white -bg black +sb -T "Console login" -e /bin/sh -c "/bin/cat /etc/issue.net; exec /bin/login" xauth_path /usr/bin/X11/xauth authfile /var/run/slim.auth login_cmd exec /bin/bash -login /etc/X11/Xsession %session sessions default,startxfce4,openbox,ion3,icewm,wmaker,blackbox,awesome screenshot_cmd scrot /root/slim.png welcome_msg Welcome to %host shutdown_msg The system is halting... reboot_msg The system is rebooting... default_user user auto_login yes current_theme debian-spacefun lockfile /var/run/slim.lock logfile /var/log/slim.log -- debconf information: * shared/default-x-display-manager: slim -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
