I noticed this error (seems harmless):- 2013-04-04T09:10:42.246356+01:00 linux-1b0m kdm_greet[2272]: Cannot load /usr/share/kde4/apps/kdm/faces/.default.face: No such file or directory
HA! I don't get that error. The greeter has the ability to display a face as part of the visual login. There's just me at this workstation so it looks in /home/anton/.face and finds a small jpeg. This is a 'real' face so there is no need to go look for the default. In /usr/share/kde4/config/kdm/kdmrc there is a section about where to find the face images. My 12.2 system says <quote> # Specify, where the users' pictures should be taken from. # "AdminOnly" - from <FaceDir>/$USER.face[.icon] # "PreferAdmin" - prefer <FaceDir>, fallback on $HOME # "PreferUser" - ... and the other way round # "UserOnly" - from the user's $HOME/.face[.icon] # Default is AdminOnly # FaceSource=AdminOnly FaceSource=PreferUser # The directory containing the user images if FaceSource is not UserOnly. # Default is "/usr/share/kde4/apps/kdm/faces" #FaceDir=/usr/share/faces </quote>
Apart form the above, where came i find errors displayed on a text screen that get displayed between grub and kdm? I think i can see the word "deprecated" in teh text but i'm not sure.
Have you tried grepping (recursively) all of /var/log? Not that it would help with a systemd implementation :-) All that happens between grub and the kernel as the 'boot messages' which are hidden by the splash screen. I disable that and see them, but yes they scroll by fast. See systemd-journalctl for other stuff. -- "Necessity is the mother of invention" is a silly proverb.
