Can not login via kdegreet

davholla · 05-09-2005, 04:10 PM

I have Mephis linux and I am unable to log in via kdegreet, it crashes without any useful info. I have to log in via console login.
Does anyone have any idea of how to how to solve this ?
I have installed the latest version of Kde.
This is not such a problem for me, but my wife can not log in via console.

Another question now when I startx I get gnome, how do I change my default to get kde ?

I have just found the kdm.log

So, did you "Run 'mkfontdir' on \"/var/lib/defoma/x-ttcidfont-conf.d/dirs/CID\"?"

And, more germaine, why are you using the pre-release version?

To answer your questions 1) No and 2) That is what came with the distro. I will upgrade it and see what happens.
