(I am only able to login if I change my shell to bash for example). I also tried to comment the line in /etc/X11/Xsession.options #allow-user-xsession But it does not work either.

Bug#336305: kdm should launch Xsession with sh
Package: kdm Version: 4:3.4.2-4 kdm launches /etc/X11/Xsession with the user shell (zsh in my case). This causes bugs. For example, /etc/X11/Xsession.d/50xfree86-common_determine-startup (which is sourced from /etc/X11/Xsession) contains : grep -qs ^allow-user-xsession $OPTIONFILE zsh expands ^allow-user-xession (to the list of files in the current directory except allow-user-xession). A trivial workaround is to quote ^allow-user-xession. But this is clearly a bug of kdm, not of Xsession. Xsession is a sh script (look at its first line) and so must be launched with sh. At least you should add setopt noextendglob in /etc/kde3/kdm/Xsession. -- Dimitri Ara -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
