Hi, I have done somthing to my set up and don't know how to fix it, (otherwise this email is a bit pointless :-) )
I hope someone can help. I think that I have pinned it down to kde_greet not starting on boot, I have compared two machines installed the same way and this is the process that is missing. I have checked /etc/inittab and that is set to run-leve5 and that it has the right incantation for starting x ie. x:5:respawn:/etc/X11/prefdm -nodaemon In fact the /etc/inittab on each machine is identical. startx works AFTER I have logged in, the bit that is missing from the startup process, is the intial login screen to X, where the user chooes which window manager they want to use etc.... Clearly /usr/bin/kdm_greet is run as part of the kde start up as I get the error message This program is part of kdm and should not be run manually. But where the call to this program is located I cannot find. Can someone help please ? All help appriciated. -- Stephen Kitchener "The best way to accelerate a Win9x machine is at 9.81m/s2."
