kdm/xdm logon screen

[Pieter De Troyer <pieter.detroyer@mech.kuleuven.ac.be>]

Hi all,

For a while now I have a stupid problem with kdam and xdm. Whenever I log
on to the system, using the login screen from kdm or xdm, I get back to
the login screen, whitout being logged in. The only way to get me in an X
environment is by logging in on console and then issuing startx, and
kdes2& or wmaker&.

Can anyone tell me what is going on? And even better: what to do to solve
it? I'm running woody.

thanx

pieter
