I have - in the same subnet - a WinXP PC and a multi-boot PC with
a) OpenSuse10.3, b) FreeBSD-7.0 (and c) WinXP)
I installed the free X-Windows server Xming on the WinXP PC,
and I can connect to the other PC when it is booted in OpenSUSE 10.3:
Xming is configured for 'open session via XDMCP', I specify fully
qualified hostname and I get the openSUSE username/password login
screen, etc...
(I didn't need to change anything in the OpenSuSE)
But when that PC is booted into FreeBSD - XMing only gives me a screen
with a grey background and a black X - connection seems not established.
The FreeBSD runs KDM as window manager and KDE as desktop.
Why and how to remedy?

Hello Pieter,
You might want to look over your settings in the following:
/usr/local/lib/X11/wdm/Xclients
Make sure that paths/names etc are ok for the section about kde
startkde*|kde*|KDE*)
# startup kde
STARTKDE_PATH=startkde
if ! test -x $STARTKDE_PATH ; then
FindInPath $STARTKDE_PATH
if test -n "$result" -a -x "$result"; then
STARTKDE_PATH="$result";
fi
fi
if [ -x $STARTKDE_PATH ] ; then
echo Starting kde >$HOME/.xwm.msgs
exec $STARTKDE_PATH -console >>$HOME/.xwm.msgs 2>&1
fi
;;
You should look for eventual settings for displaymanagers for KDM - I am
sorry but I don not know where/how/if KDM has a setting for this. WDM
has this in the wdm-config file - maybe KDM has something similar?
(The wdm setting is like this:
DisplayManager*wdmWm: WindowMaker:FluxBox)
You should also check your Xorg log files for any messages - they should
be in /var/log.
Greetings
/Roger
