And it showed nothing until I ran it alone, and answered the question. 'guess I should report a bug about reportbug ;-) > Okay, back to topic ;) Right. I had tried everything you said, and ended up reinstalling completely kdm, and then it worked again. Now, I've understood that if I ever configure anything from the control center, next kdm run will fail as I described. My understanding is that kdm_config or whatever outputs wrong configuration files (should be 2.2) that a next kdm instance is unable to parse. I could do this again and send you diff of the files if you whish, but I'm in a hurry right now so I gotta go (I wanted to let you know before leaving my office).

I'm using sarge $ reportbug --template kdm | wc -l 52 $ reportbug --version reportbug 2.63 Okay, back to topic ;) Did you try /etc/init.d/kdm restart maybe some share libs stuff broke kdm. Does grep kdm /var/log/daemon.log show any strange messages? Did you try to search if others had already the problem? I know there were several problems related to kdm 3.3 but because I'm using sarge I did not follow closely. Try o reportbug kdm# and check the contents of related bug o search kde-debian mailing list archive Achim > -- > Didier Verna, [EMAIL PROTECTED], http://www.lrde.epita.fr/~didier > > EPITA / LRDE, 14-16 rue Voltaire Tel.+33 (1) 44 08 01 85 > 94276 Le Kremlin-Bicêtre, France Fax.+33 (1) 53 14 59 22 [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To me vi is Zen.
