Package: kdm Version: 4:3.2.2-1 Severity: normal I uncommented the first commented display line in /etc/kde3/kdm/Xservers: :1 [EMAIL PROTECTED] reserve /usr/X11R6/bin/X -nolisten tcp :1 vt8 and did invoke-rc.d kdm restart
Despite this /var/run/xdmctl/ only showed xdmctl and xdmctl-:0. As I understand it, there should have been an xdmctl-:1 to which I could direct echo reserve to start up the second login screen. I also tried restarting my X server on vt7. This didn't help. I have xfree86-common version 4.3.0-7, and am in a mostly testing system. I may not have understood how this is supposed to work, but this is what I got from the docs. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (50, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.4.24advncdfs Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 Versions of packages kdm depends on: ii debconf 1.4.22 Debian configuration management sy ii kdebase-bin 4:3.2.2-1 KDE Base (binaries) ii kdelibs4 4:3.2.2-2 KDE core libraries ii libart-2.0-2 2.3.16-5 Library of functions for 2D graphi ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-11 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libfam0c102 2.7.0-5 client library to control the FAM ii libgcc1 1:3.3.3-6 GCC support library ii libice6 4.3.0-7 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libpam-runtime 0.76-19 Runtime support for the PAM librar ii libpam0g 0.76-19 Pluggable Authentication Modules l ii libpng12-0 1.2.5.0-5 PNG library - runtime ii libqt3c102-mt 3:3.2.3-2 Qt GUI Library (Threaded runtime v ii libsm6 4.3.0-7 X Window System Session Management ii libstdc++5 1:3.3.3-6 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libx11-6 4.3.0-7 X Window System protocol client li ii libxext6 4.3.0-7 X Window System miscellaneous exte ii libxrender1 0.8.3-7 X Rendering Extension client libra ii libxtst6 4.3.0-7 X Window System event recording an ii xbase-clients 4.3.0-7 miscellaneous X clients ii xlibs 4.3.0-7 X Window System client libraries m ii zlib1g 1:1.2.1-5 compression library - runtime -- debconf information: perl: warning: Setting locale failed. perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings: LANGUAGE = (unset), LC_ALL = (unset), LANG = "en_US.UTF-8" are supported and installed on your system. perl: warning: Falling back to the standard locale ("C"). locale: Cannot set LC_CTYPE to default locale: No such file or directory locale: Cannot set LC_MESSAGES to default locale: No such file or directory locale: Cannot set LC_ALL to default locale: No such file or directory kdm/stop_running_server_with_children: false * kdm/default_servers_nolisten_tcp: * kdm/default_servers_100dpi: * kdm/kdmrc: shared/default-x-display-manager: kdm * kdm/default_nolisten_udp: kdm/daemon_name: /usr/bin/kdm kdm/oldconfig:
