> My guess is that xkbcomp is failing in one case and not the other. How can I tell? There's nothing in the log file, and I replaced xkbcomp with a shell script that invoked the real binary and it seems to be getting the right arguments. But no matter what, the X server that xdm is invoking is setuid root, so not matter what tricks xdm pulls, the server should still be able to start up correctly, or am I missing something fundamental here?
One thing of interest I did note in the log files when running under xdm versus using startx. I get warnings from the transport layer saying it doesn't know how to handle protocol family 0. I am going to diagnose that particular problem later. Any other clues you may offer, or can you educate me how to get debugging output relating to xkb? Thanks.
