I seem to have got myself to a situation where kdm shows itself in the tty1 console as starting twice at boot into runlevel 5. The outcome is a solid freeze, usually sooner rather than later, requiring a reset. If I boot to runlevel 3 and call kdm from the tty1 console, all is fine
I have done a little 'print' debugging and found that K15xdm gets called twice, I think as part of runlevel change. Can anyone point me to a good resource which will help me trace through the process of changing to runlevel 5, and get to the bottom of the problem?
man init.d and a very good writeup in the suse admin book, that now has another name and no longer comes in paper. The chapter may be named something like "INIT.D - The SuSE boot concept". Have a look at "/etc/init.d/rc5.d/", see if there are two "S*xdm" files, and inside the "/etc/init.d/.depend.start" file.
Using boxed opensuse 10.2, AMD 64 bit with dual opterons and a matrox g450, FWIW - I am more inclined to think it is to do with fiddling with the /etc/sysconfig editor and inadvertently changing things.
Could be... but I don't know how. Have a look at "/etc/sysconfig/displaymanager". - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
