Good morning,
as quick work around you can start gdm the old way:
/usr/X11R6/etc/rc.d/xxxxxxserver.sh (will start the script as late as
possible)
# erstellt: 15.11.2004
# =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D
PREFIX=3D/usr/X11R6
case "$1" in
start)
export LANG=3Dde
export LANGUAGE=3Dde
export LC_TYPE=3Dde_DE.8859-15
export LC_ALL=3Dde_DE.8859-15
${PREFIX}/bin/gdm
;;
stop)
/usr/bin/killall -m gdm 2>/dev/null
;;
*)
echo "Usage: `basename $0` start | stop"
exit 64
;;
esac
exit 0
Hope this will help you.
Best regards
J=FCrgen
