Greetings, I recently configured [gkx]dm logins, but noticed that after I logged out of the first session my other VTs would become unusable (showing a static [gkx]dm login screen but no console). Furthermore [gkx]dm seemed to having switched VTs (from VT7 -> VT8). I could log into a session and later log out again (again switch VTs VT8 -> VT7, race condition?). This problem occured only when I started [xkg]dm, but not when I used startx from the console. In both cases DRI was enabled. With DRI disabled, [kgx]dm work perfectly for me (no graphics errors upon logging out). I tested my configuration using an older Version of XFree86 (4.1.0) where everything worked perfectly as well, even with DRI enabled. In both cases I had compiled XFree86 by myself, but console switching (after logging out of first session) also didn't work when I tested with a precompiled XFree-4.3.0 version (from SuSE-8.2). I didn't much test Xfree-4.2.x, though. Then I downloaded the linux-drm-4.3.0-kernelsource package from the XFree86-Homepage and compiled it on my system (Kernel 2.4.21, GCC-2.95.2); but whereas the tdfx.o kernel module seems to work ok, the tdfx_drv.so prevents X from starting altogether: (from my XFree86.0.log) (EE) LoadModule: Module tdfx does not have a tdfxModuleData data object. (EE) Failed to load module "tdfx" (invalid module, 0) (EE) No drivers available. Fatal server error: no screens found This only happens with the tdfx_drv.so from the linux-drm package, though. So while I now have a configuration that allows me to use [gkx]dm (by disabling DRI), I would like to know if this error can be fixed in the upcoming XFree86-4.4.0 release (considering that [gkx]dm+DRI seemed to work in at least XFree-4.1.0).
