Package: kdm Version: 4:4.11.13-2 Instead of a login window kdm shows me a popup about a SIGSEV at boot time. kdm.log is attached.
"systemctl | grep -i dbus" shows dbus.service loaded active running D-Bus System Message Bus dbus.socket loaded active running D-Bus System Message Bus Socket grep -i dbus /var/log/daemon.log: Oct 22 13:55:00 dpcl082 dbus[1906]: [system] Successfully activated service 'org.freedesktop.systemd1' Oct 22 13:55:00 dpcl082 dbus[1906]: [system] Activating via systemd: service name='org.freedesktop.PolicyKit1' unit='polkitd.service' Oct 22 13:55:00 dpcl082 dbus[1906]: [system] Successfully activated service 'org.freedesktop.PolicyKit1' If I login on the command line and stop the kdm service, then I can run X without problems (using "startx"). Please mail if I can help to track this down. Regards Harri
******************************************************************************** Note that your system uses syslog. All of kdm's internally generated messages (i.e., not from libraries and external programs/scripts it uses) go to the daemon.* syslog facility; check your syslog configuration to find out to which file(s) it is logged. PAM logs messages related to authentication to authpriv.*. ******************************************************************************** X.Org X Server 1.16.4 Release Date: 2014-12-20 X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0 Build Operating System: Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 x86_64 Debian Current Operating System: Linux dpcl082.ac.aixigo.de 4.2.0-0.bpo.1-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.2.3-2~bpo8+1 (2015-10-20) x86_64 Kernel command line: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-4.2.0-0.bpo.1-amd64 root=UUID=61f762dc-064b-4db2-a7a8-6d1260a7e960 ro nfs.nfs4_unique_id=e25a4169-41fe-4bc3-a604-1f1e0cd015b2 quiet Build Date: 11 February 2015 12:32:02AM xorg-server 2:1.16.4-1 (http://www.debian.org/support) Current version of pixman: 0.32.6 Before reporting problems, check http://wiki.x.org to make sure that you have the latest version.
