[Cooker] KDE 3.2 beta1 - KDM Session Type Selection

2003-11-16 Thread Jure Repinc
I just installed KDE 3.2 beta 1 from Cooker (kdebase-kdm 3.1.93 -23mdk) 
and I have found a problem with KDM session type selection. It just 
doesn't work. It always starts IceWM even if I select something else.

Is this a known problem? Is there any fix available for it?

I'm suffering the same problem.

Not figured out what's causing it yet

Maybe Laurent could make Mike happy in hi next change log

It goes further.  If you select GNOME during the first-time wizard, then 
logout and login, you get a default of KDE.  It is after that that 
everything goes to IceWM.

No problem for me.
I've upgraded my 9.2(dl) this week, have 3.1.93-23mdk installed.

The strange thing is if I type in startx (ie don't use any form of 
autologin)

It works perfectly

So I think it might have something to do with the user authentication 
problem

For me it works fine if I choose Default.

No (and this is using LDAP even).

I think there's still a problem with getting /etc/wmsession.d into kdm
(since I don't think I see all the WMs I have installed).

Well, it depends on what you want to get for Default.  If I go through 
the drakfw wizard and choose GNOME, that's what I expect to get the next 
time.

But that aside, the problem is that no matter what WM you choose 
explicitly from the (I assume) MDKKDM submenu, all you get is ICEWm.  
Maybe this doesn't happen if all you ever try to use is KDE.

Well, at present it seems to mean KDE.

Yes, I guess this is also broken, but I normally avoid drakfw myself.

Well, actually after kde-3.2 made it onto my cooker box, I tried the KDE
entry, and got IceWM, tried the GNOME entry, and got IceWM, tried the
Default entry, and got KDE. My last login to X before the kde-3.2 upgrade
was KDE, no idea if that makes a difference or not, but it works for me so
I'm not going to change it in the near future.

Although no consolation to you i can confirm it works great if you use kde.
