xdm, lesstif problems



Ok, I'm running full hamm, and just updated (about 20mb worth).  Now xdm
won't work at all, even with the /etc/init.d/xdm start command as root (I
have the same xdm file in /etc/init.d I had before).  And, when I do
'startx', it uses mwm instead of AfterStep, which I have called as the
last line of my .xsession file:

mattyt# cat .xsession 

exec xsysinfo -geometry 225x100+602+921 &
xconsole -geometry 450x100+828+921 -daemon -notify -verbose -fn fixed
-exitOnFail -file /dev/xconsole -stick &
exec afterstep

I also got these errors regarding lesstif:

Installing files...

Preparing to replace lesstif-bin 1:0.83-3 (using
.../devel/lesstif-bin_0.83-4.deb) ...

Any help you can give would be *much* appreciated.  Life without AfterStep
and xdm is a drag. :)

TIA,
Matt
