[Bug 765284] New: Starting twm session fails from gdm
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=765284 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=765284#c0 Summary: Starting twm session fails from gdm Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 12.2 Version: Beta 1 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: X.Org AssignedTo: bnc-team-xorg-bugs@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: tiwai@suse.com QAContact: xorg-maintainer-bugs@forge.provo.novell.com Found By: --- Blocker: --- When twm session is selected in GDM, the session can't be started correctly and aborts immediately back to GDM login screen. The reason looks like that GDM sets a superfluous command argument "en_US.UTF-8", and xinitrc script simply tries to invoke as is. FWIW, the command line passed to xinitrc is: /usr/bin/twm en_US.UTF-8 Since xdm doesn't pass such an argument, it could be a bug of GDM. -- 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.

Seems so, since this issue doesn't occur with KDM either. Reassigning. -- 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.
