WDM fails to load properly: wdm-config is blank


Hello all,

Evesham with AMD XP1800, Vector Linux 5.0

Historically login screen (wdm) loaded with the animated penguins background & choice of , eg xfce,icewm, fluxbox etc. Now the login screen has a black background & launches to a black screen only. In the terminal window I type starticewm to get a display manager.

I have found out that my /etc/wdm/wdm-config file is completely blank, so I supect this is the problem. Trouble is - where do I get an example wdm-config which is suitable? Vector 5.0 is based on slackware 10.1 (I think)

All help appreciated,

Thanks
