Hey Guys, hoping you can help. I Have a FREEBSD 6.2-STABLE recently supped and compiled, which is a diskless environment. The workstation I'm testing on is working fine, Xorg 7.2 is running perfectly as is KDE (I start it up with startx from a user login).
However, when I run KDM as root, and try to login as the same user, KDM sits for about a minute, and then just returns to the KDM login screen. I've gotten rid of the critical error messages I've found in kdm-bin.log, and Xorg.log.0, but still KDM will not pass to KDE/X. Here are the excerpts from the logs (These log entries are only during the login procedure, from when I press enter with a correct user/pass until it returns to KDM). <Xorg.log.0 snip> (II) I810(0): [drm] removed 1 reserved context for kernel (II) I810(0): [drm] unmapping 8192 bytes of SAREA 0xc43e7000 at 0x28584000 (WW) I810(0): Successfully set original devices (WW) I810(0): Setting the original video mode instead of restoring the saved state (WW) I810(0): Extended BIOS function 0x5f05 failed.
