as mentioned above, the contents are: /usr/sbin/gdm I can get past the 'if' test in /etc/init.d/gdm start) if the path in /etc/X11/default-display-manager is changed to: /usr/bin/gdm but this path is non-existent: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/bernie# apt-file update [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/bernie# apt-file search /usr/bin/gdm gdc-4.1: usr/bin/gdmd gdc-4.1: usr/bin/gdmd-4.1 gdm: usr/bin/gdm-dmx-reconnect-proxy gdm: usr/bin/gdmXnest gdm: usr/bin/gdmXnestchooser gdm: usr/bin/gdmdynamic gdm: usr/bin/gdmflexiserver gdm: usr/bin/gdmphotosetup gdm: usr/bin/gdmthemetester gdmap: usr/bin/gdmap hence the bugreport. Why does /etc/init.d/gdm rely on a bogus path in /etc/X11/default-display-manager ?
