hi, I have these 2 problems since some weeks.
I don't know if they are related or not, and if it's due a du...
- login: kdm doesn't start automatically, I have the textual login screen, then I have to "startx", and then it works as usual.
- halt: if I exit from kde with buttons, I return to the textual login screen. if I "halt" from konsole it works. but, in any case, the screen remain with a black screen and the text "system halted", and the computer remain turned on.
any idea?
do you need some more info?
thanks!
long answer short: we do not use and support kdm anymore. Reasons:
* kdm is dead and abandoned
* kdm don't play well with systemd
* kdm will not be the next official KDE Login Manager
For the time beeing we go with lightdm - until we find something better. To install lightdm go to init3 and:
apt-get purge kdm
apt-get install siduction-settings-lightdm-gtk-december
Don't be afraid of the gtk part in the packagename, thats intentional because no one wants to configure the ubuntu kde greeter.
thank you very much!!! ;)
just a question... if I had kdm and it did work...
why suddenly it doesn't work anymore? :o
it fixes also the shutdown problem?
I'll try!
new systemd eventually - we encountered several problems with systemd and kdm over time and decided not to use it anymore for that reason. Ok - and i'm lazy, i don't analyse and fix dead horses. 8)
it works perfectly now!!! ;)
it was so easy... :D
I have other 2 problems, maybe it's easy to solve also them, but I'll open a new topic.
