Re: Double problem with KDM

2005-10-20 Thread Emmanuel Guiton
The keyboard problem does not come from the driver in Xorg. I checked, 
it was correct. I'm not using the nv driver but the nvidia driver that I 
installed with the installer from NVidia. Anyway, I don't have any 
trouble with my Xorg config once I get to KDE or Gnome. So I don't think 
the problem comes from there.


I had also already read the thread can't connect to any desktop. 
However, commenting out the line about ssh-agent in Xsession.options did 
not change anything. From what I read, I understood that the problem 
occured for versions of openssl and libssl that are newer than 0.9.8-3. 
But I have only the openssl 0.9.7g-2 and libssl 0.9.7e-3 installed.


Any more suggestions?

- Emmanuel

Hi!

After I installed Debian, I tried to use kdm instead of gdm. I ran into
the 2 following problems
- When the kdm login screen appears, I do not have any keyboard input. I
cannot enter neither my login nor my password. If I try to restart the X
session, nothing changes. If I try console login, I can log in without
any problem. Then, I can start kdm as root and when the login window
appears I can normally enter my username and password.
- At this point appears the second problem: after validating my username
and password, the kdm window disappears... and appears again. I can
never get the desktop running.
On the other hand, such troubles do not happen at all with gdm.

Does anyone have already seen these symptoms? (Is it serious, doc?)

Thanks for any help,
- Emmanuel
   



Don't know if this is related; but I recently changed my 32-bit machine 
running Etch from XFree86 to Xorg and there was an error in the generated 
xorg.conf, an instance of 
Driver  Keyboard

that should have read
Driver  keyboard
This was keeping X from starting up altogether, and it cost me a night's sleep 
as I faffed around trying to get a working xorg.conf together.  OTOH, now I 
have done it, it rocks bells.


If it makes any difference, I have been using the open source nv graphics 
card drivers all along on both my 32 and 64 bit machines.

Just read thread can't connect to ANY desktop ! on this ml.
