KDM and XDM seem to work fine on my PWS 500au, but I get these messages when KDM starts. Has anyone seen these before? AJ Schroeder -----Original Message----- From: Jan Lentfer [mailto:Jan.Lentfer@web.de] Sent: Wednesday, July 10, 2002 3:36 AM To: freebsd-alpha Subject: xdm and kdm core dump Hi all, I am trying to set up a graphical login on my PWS 500a. I've tried xdm, kdm/kde2 (both core dump if called from ttys AND command line). Gdm seems to work. Gdm2 only works if started from command line, acts very strange when started from ttys. Am I missing something? I Always thought that usually xdm is the one with the highest chance to work. Are the others I could try? But actually I really would like to have kdm working. I can't remember to have these problems when setting up X on a x86 machine, so I guess this is Alpha-specific?
