Hi!

If I am trying to connect to my linux server via XDM broadcast, my linux host is displayed as a potential server; I am connectiong to the linux server, seeing for about one second a light blue background (of my linux server) and the connection closes.

Any additional tipps??

I've had a similar problem, and I solved it by switching the GUI-style of KDM, for example to "KDE default".
SuSE's default is the Keramik-Style which uses alphablending, and this seems not to be understood by all Xservers.

You can change this either by using the KDE Control Center, or by editing

/etc/opt/kde3/share/config/kdm/kdmrc

Cheers
