Here's a related question.  When I try to start a new session, I just get 
dumped back into my old session.  When I checked /var/log/kdm.log, I find the 
following error messages

(EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to allocate external video decoder object
(EE) NVIDIA(0):  *** Aborting ***

Similar messages are in /var/log/XFree86.1.log.  I'm running a TNT2 M64 card 
with NVidia's drivers.

Any ideas?

Doug

Slight topic drift, and the answer is probably 'no' anyway - can the same be 
achieved with xdm? (I like xdm: I can have the login window black, without a 
frame or any visible widgets, on a black background, so it looks like I enter 
the login info directly into the background. Can't do the same with kdm 
afaik.)

Check the file /etc/kde3/kdm/Xservers.
It should contains configuration lines for the additional XServers, e.g:
:0 [EMAIL PROTECTED] /usr/X11R6/bin/X :0 -dpi 100 -nolisten tcp vt7
:1 local reserve /usr/X11R6/bin/X :1 -dpi 100 -nolisten tcp vt8


Cheers,
Kevin

Edit /etc/kde3/kdm/Xservers, and add "reserve" servers. For example, mine is:

:0 [EMAIL PROTECTED] /usr/X11R6/bin/X -dpi 100 -nolisten tcp vt7
:1 [EMAIL PROTECTED] reserve /usr/X11R6/bin/X -dpi 100 -nolisten tcp :1 vt8
:2 [EMAIL PROTECTED] reserve /usr/X11R6/bin/X -dpi 100 -nolisten tcp :2 vt9
:3 [EMAIL PROTECTED] reserve /usr/X11R6/bin/X -dpi 100 -nolisten tcp :3 vt10

You should have no troubles. ;-)

I miss "Start new session" entry in KDE Menu

2004-03-08 Thread Marcin Juszkiewicz

Before running KDE 3.2.1/3.2.0 from Debian unstable/experimental I used 3.2cvs 
packages built by Christian Muehlhaeuser. 

In KDE Menu I got position "Start new session" which spawn KDM on next console 
so I and my girlgfirend both can have own KDE session logged at the same 
time. In Debian packages this option is lost ;(

How can I restore it?
