[-- Attachment #1 --] i just installed 3.2 and i'm having problems with my graphical logon into X. it accepts my password, but takes me right back to the logon screen. i read at linuxpower.com that this means the system is rejecting my password...ie invalid logon and i could bypass it using F1 to get a barebones X going. they didn't offer a solution....does anyone know what the problem is here? i didn't have this problem with 3.1 thanks, daniel fisher btw i start xdm using /etc/ttys not with rc.local [-- Attachment #2 --] <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HTML><HEAD> <META content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" http-equiv=Content-Type> <META content="MSHTML 5.00.2014.210" name=GENERATOR> <STYLE></STYLE> </HEAD> <BODY bgColor=#ffffff> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>i just installed 3.2 and i'm having problems with my graphical logon into X.</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>it accepts my password, but takes me right back to the logon screen.</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>i read at linuxpower.com that this means the system is rejecting my password...ie invalid logon and i could bypass it using F1 to get a barebones X going.</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>they didn't offer a solution....</FONT><FONT face=Arial size=2>does anyone know what the problem is here?</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>i didn't have this problem with 3.1</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>thanks,</FONT></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>daniel fisher</FONT></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>btw i start xdm using /etc/ttys not with rc.local</FONT></DIV> <DIV> </DIV></BODY></HTML>
