Bug#581942: kdm: KDM 4.4.3 fails into console after successful login
Package: kdm
Version: 4:4.4.3-1
Severity: important
After I upgraded my KDE to the 4.4.3 version which recently reached squeeze, KDM doesn't launch the desktop session anymore; instead, it either goes into KDM again, or closes completely, leaving only the tty1 console. Though, logging into console session and launching "startx" manually launches KDE perfectly. No errors in the Xorg.0.log, the only suspicious are the syslog lines like "May 17 14:34:25 amyodov-lap kdm: :0[3143]: Received unknown command 9 from greeter" (which obviously do NOT appear in case if successful KDE bootup via startx).
