Anyone else not getting KDM any more since updating TW to 20180928?
Startx works.
Anyone know how to figure out why it times out?

/var/run/kdm.pid exists /var/run/displaymanager.pid does not
I'm guessing something changed that requires a change somewhere in KDM to get a different request for *.pid. Bug report needed?
Felix, I don't have TW, but I can't test, but it shows ExecStart=...(code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS) which is normal (at least for 15, e.g.) 22:25 vlleap15:~> sc status xdm ● display-manager.service - X Display Manager Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/display-manager.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled) Active: failed (Result: timeout) since Wed 2018-10-03 22:25:25 CDT; 11s ago Process: 964 ExecStart=/usr/lib/X11/display-manager start (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS) Tasks: 5 (limit: 4915) CGroup: /system.slice/display-manager.service ├─1161 /opt/kde3/bin/kdm └─1177 /usr/bin/Xorg -br -nolisten tcp :0 vt7 -auth /var/lib/xdm/authdir/authfiles/A:0-IjDiXh What is different and what has changed is: Can't open PID file /var/run/displaymanager.pid (yet?) checking on 15, there is no /var/run/displaymanager.pid, so why TW is looking for one is not something seen earlier. Also normal is the: Oct 03 22:25:25 vlleap15 systemd[1]: display-manager.service: Start operation timed out. Terminating. Oct 03 22:25:25 vlleap15 systemd[1]: Failed to start X Display Manager.

Without knowing more, it looks like there has been a requirement added for the /var/run/displaymanager.pid file which is never found. Instead, for kdm3, I have /var/run/kdm.pid not /var/run/displaymanager.pid -- David C.
