  We have recieved the following bug report in the kde team.  As we
  kind of are out of sparc computers we are seeking help.  You need:
  a debian sparc running recent unsntable and a attached monitor.
  Try to install kdm and log in.  Report back if it works or not.
  
  If some of you really nice people are able to reproduce it, a
  patch would also be much appreciated.

i have a similar problem, with gdm not working on sparc running
current unstable debian. similarly with Scott, after i've upgraded a
bunch of packages, the X server did not start any more: gdm was
starting, but X server flashes and immediately stops, leaving only
gdm running.

X server works fine when running via startx or from xdm (rather than gdm).

there are no EE lines in the Xorg.0.log in any case. the diff between
the failed xserver run (under gdm) and successful xserver run (under
xdm) is:

i don't know how to debug the problem when X server exits when running
under gdm (or kdm).

Best,
v.

Could you guys please check if these issues are related to #432256?

I've rebuilt xorg with the patch suggested there and I can't reproduce
the bugs you reported: both kdm and gdm are woking properly on my system.

As building xorg is quite time consuming, you may want to get the
packages I've built for myself from here:
