Hi, I have a problem with kdm. After the latest update, 'sudo zypper ps' gives me PID | PPID | UID | Login | Befehl | Dienst | Dateien ------+------+-----+-------+--------+--------+-------------------------------- 1441 | 1 | 0 | root | kdm | | /usr/bin/kdm;54097cbe (deleted) 22103 | 1441 | 0 | root | kdm | | /usr/bin/kdm;54097cbe (deleted) Since recently, a $ sudo systemctl restart xdm.service would restart kdm. Not anymore. Even after $ sudo systemctl stop xdm.service kdm keeps running. I had the same problem a few days ago, then I decided to simply kill the kdm-process. Alas, that shut me out of the system (lost the text consoles completely, just a blank screen with a blinking underscore in the upper left corner, no reaction to keyboard) and I had to reboot. Below is the output of 'systemctl status xdm.service' Should this still work, or is there a new/other way of (re)starting the display manager? Any ideas to how I can get this working again?
