Hi folks,I have no idea how GDM (GNOME Display Manager) works except that it failed to find something named "kde3".
Debian KDE-3.1
After starting the PC and login KDE as USER, it failed to start with following warnings
"view details (~/.xssession-errors file)"
/etc/gdm/PreSession/Default: Registering your session with wtmp and utmp
/etc/gdm/PreSession/Default: running : sessreg -a -w /var/log/wtmp -u /var/run/utmp -x "/var/lib/gm/ : 0 .xservers "-h "" -l : 0 user
+ wm=kde3
+ cp /dev/null /home/user.kde3-errors
+ chmod 600 /home/user/.kde3-errors
+ exec
# cat /gdm/PreSession/Default .... echo "$0 : could not find the sessreg utility, cannot update wtmp and utmp" exit 0
# cat /home/user/.kde3-errors ..... + echo "kde3: kde3 not found, Quiting" kde3=kde3 not found. Quiting + exit
# ls -al /home/user/ | grep kde -rw-r--r-- 1 user user 1119 Jan 13 10:40 .gtkrc-kde drwx------ 4 user user 4096 Jan 13 13:40 .kde -rw------- 1 user user 528 Jan 13 13:28 .kde3-errors -rw------- 1 user user 490 Jan 1 01:21 .kderc
(.kde3 not found)
If you normally wish to run KDE, perhaps it would be better to use KDM.
Or, I would ask on a Debian list.
