i have installed debain sarge 2.6.

the problems is when i reboot

i have to login as root and to start this

/etc/init.d/kdm start

and KDE(3.3) will start

but when i reboot i have to make this again.

but before in debain sarge 2.4 i was have not this problem.

where i can place that displaymanager = kdm

Did you try dpkg-reconfigure kdm? Or perhaps reinstall the kdm package to restore the startup links apt-get install --reinstall kdm.

i have installed like this boot from net cd

linux26

after this i have made
apt-get install x-window-system kde kdm

and then after this i reboot

ps.

als het kan ik kom uit nederland.
maar ik denk het meest wordt hier in engels uitgelegd dus..

kdm doet het wel maar moet iedere weer opstarten met /etc/init.d/kdm start

add startkde to your ~/.xinitrc and startx or reboot. Works fine for me

thoray · 04-17-2005, 05:57 AM

echo "exec startkde" > ~/.xinitrc

like this or ??

One easy way to enable and disable services, such as kdm, is to install the sysvconfig program. First type "su" to become root, then type "apt-get install sysvconfig" to install the program, and then type "sysvconfig" to start sysvconfig. Once the program has started, you can use it to enable the kdm service. Then you can exit sysvconfig, reboot, and next you should be welcomed by the kdm login screen.

kdm start only when i make /etc/init.d/kdm start

but after reboot it came all the time with login for root and not with KDM or X server just blackscreen for login

xdm is also enable
as i see

$ cat /etc/X11/default-display-manager
/usr/bin/kdm

does Kde work when you try to run it as a normal user? Do you get any errors when you type "startkde". Cause this is really very weird. If you can't sort it out here try irc://irc.freenode.net/debian
