I just upgraded from 2.1.6 to 2.2GAMMA(2-15-97). I put the following
command in /etc/fbtab: 
	
	/dev/ttyv0 0600 /dev/console

and I put the following in /etc/rc.local: 

	/usr/X11R6/bin/xdm

This worked in 2.1.6 but it does not work in 2.2GAMMA. I get the xdm
login screen but when I enter the username and password, the screen
switces to a grey background, sits for a couple of seconds, and then
goes back to the login screen.

Is this a known problem in 2.2, or do I need to do something different
to set up xdm? Any help is most appeciated and I thank you in advance.
