Bug#731508: xdm: session will not execute correctly / login works



Package: xdm
Version: 1:1.1.11-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

   * What led up to the situation?
     Launching session with xdm/gdm/kdm
   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?
     Credentials given to xdm
   * What was the outcome of this action?
     Login works but session fails to start
   * What outcome did you expect instead?
     Working session

currently xdm, gdm and kdm seem to be broken due to a bug I can not locate.

The Login itself works, but the window manager won't execute and the login due
fails to start.

Running startx works and I get a working X session.

I attached my .xinitrc file.

With many greetings,

Adrian Immanuel KIEß
