The display manager upon bootup shows ACDM instead of GDM. However, after entering my username and password, ACDM died and brought me to the console login screen (CTL+ALT+F1). Try:

Thanks. Unfortunately it doesn't work. ACDM still died.
This is what I did to substitute Entrance for SuSE defaults. I would check what parameters the ACDM script (or the binary component of the script) require to work. ... I made two changes to /etc/init.d/xdm the three lines marked + where added with with the path to the entrance binary, in your case it should be the ACDM binary (approx line 90). case "${DISPLAYMANAGER##*/}" in kdm|kde|KDM|KDE) DISPLAYMANAGER=/opt/kde3/bin/kdm PIDFILE="/var/run/kdm.pid" ;; xdm) DISPLAYMANAGER=$XDM_BIN ;; gdm|GDM|Gnome|GNOME) DISPLAYMANAGER=/opt/gnome/sbin/gdm PIDFILE="/var/run/gdm.pid" ;; wdm|WDM) DISPLAYMANAGER=/usr/X11R6/bin/wdm ;; console) exit 0 ;; + entrance) DISPLAYMANAGER=/usr/sbin/entranced + PIDFILE="/var/run/entranced.pid" + ;; *) DISPLAYMANAGER=$XDM_BIN if test -x /opt/kde3/bin/kdm; then DISPLAYMANAGER=/opt/kde3/bin/kdm PIDFILE="/var/run/kdm.pid" fi ;; esac and (at approx line 125) I changed XDMOPTIONS which should contain the X options required by the ACDM binary to load... (and local environment setting may need to be included at this point)... BTW check whether the ACDM requires any hardware modules to be loaded, if this is the case, at this point you could insert a test to see if the module is loaded and either wait for the module to load or load the module... if [ "$DISPLAYMANAGER" = "/opt/gnome/sbin/gdm" -a \ "$DISPLAYMANAGER_REMOTE_ACCESS" = "yes" -a \ "$DISPLAYMANAGER_STARTS_XSERVER" = "no" ]; then XDMOPTIONS="--no-console" fi + if [ "$DISPLAYMANAGER" = "/usr/sbin/entranced" ]; then + XDMOPTIONS="-nodaemon" + fi Does this look anything like what you did?
