Public bug reported:
After installing from Kubuntu Gutsy(7.10) Alternate install CD for PS3 I was
unable to get the KDM login screen. The PS3 would always boot to a command
prompt.
I traced this issue to a double entry in the "/etc/default/locale" file
which was causing the "/etc/init.d/kdm" script to fail when checking
locale. The file contained two identical lines...
LANG="en_US.UTF-8"
LANG="en_US.UTF-8"
Running the "/etc/init.d/kdm" script yielded the following...
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/kdm start
sed: -e expression #1, char 32: unterminated `s' command
Deleting the extra line in "/etc/default/locale" resolved the problem and
allowed the "/etc/init.d/kdm" script to run from the command line and on boot.
Perhaps this was triggered by bug# 154083. I got to a point in the
install where the installer wasn't able to find the "linux-cell" kernel
image. It produced a menu where I had to select a kernel image. I
selected "linux-image-2.6.22-14-cell" and the install continued. If I
remember correctly, it went through some of the install steps that had
already been performed (keyboard, timezone setup, etc.). Perhaps this
caused the second entry in "/etc/default/locale".
