A newbie question (certainly answered before, but I didn't find anything searching): Trying to run xdm, it accepts the login, but starts all over again. As said in "The Complete FreeBSD", I change/add as follows: In /etc/ttys, I disable one of the terminals: ttyv3 "/usr/libexec/getty Pc" cons25 off secure In /etc/rc.local, I enable xdm: #put your local stuff here echo " xdm"; /usr/X11R6/bin/xdm In /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm/Xservers, I configure xdm: :0 local /usr/X11R6/bin/X :0 vt03 If I run xdm manually, with: xdm -nodaemon & I got the same result (i.e. xdm just accepts the login and then loops, doesn't let me in) Any suggestions what to do, anyone? Some configuration missing? /Juan Kuuse To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
