kdm won't start kde2
Hi all- I had to blast my system and reinstall potato. I got task-kde from kde.debian.net and got kdm running, but I can't launch kde2 from kdm. Blackbox and twm are launched from default and failsafe. The x-window-manager alternative points to /usr/bin/blackbox. I tried to change this to kde2 by running 'update-alternatives --config x-window-manager', but only twm and blackbox are listed as options. How do I change this alternative, or get kdm to launch kde2? Thanks, Stephen
stable -> testing kde problems
I just upgraded my potato box to testing and am having problems getting kde set up. I noticed there is no task-kde in testing (correct?). So I manually picked the kde debs with dselect. I got kdm running fine, but when I try to login via kdm, the machine hangs for a few seconds and then dumps me back to kdm. I can however get kdm to lauch blackbox without problems though. What am I missing/doing wrong? FYI: This was inspired by the "upgrade" to a geforce2 mx video card. Any relation? -stephen
