https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=395292 Summary: kdm initialization looks for kdm_config under /opt/kde3 instead of /usr/lib/ Product: openSUSE 11.0 Version: Beta 3 Platform: i586 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.0 Status: NEW Severity: Critical Priority: P5 - None Component: KDE4 Workspace AssignedTo: kde-maintainers@suse.de ReportedBy: jrobiso2@ford.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- Just upgraded from Beta 2 to Beta 3. Had same problem in Beta 2. System would fail to start X because it was set to be started by kde, which itself failed because kdm failed. According to /var/log/messages, the kdm initialization is looking for kdm_config in /opt/kde3/lib/kde4/libexec instead of under /usr/lib/kde4/libexec. Temp fix for me was to symlink /opt/kde3/lib/kde4 to /usr/lib/kde4 -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

The very first mention of kdmrc in /var/log/messages is AFTER I created the symbolic link to fix the above problem. I ran find /etc /usr /opt -name kdmrc All I got back was /usr/share/kde4/config/kdm/kdmrc -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
