Nup. Been there, tried that, doesn't work, although once kde has started
you
_can_ get the xconsole running by launching it from the command line (using a command like the lines near the bottom of /etc/X11/xdm/Ssetup) but you have to set xhost +localhost first.
You do realize that you must restart X for this to work ?? --
No it is not necessary. I want to solve the problem for a few weeks, and decided yesterday to make something and happened to find the following solution. In your home directory (for instance) write a script called (for instance) xconsole : #!/bin/sh # /usr/X11R6/bin/xhost +localhost /usr/X11R6/bin/xconsole -file /dev/xconsole -daemon -iconic (see note) In the directory ~/.kde/Autostart set a link to the previous script. xconsole starts at each login and not once over two as previously with suse. Note : the option -file /dev/xconsole is necessary or you'll have to be root for xconsole to log. It works in my box. Good luck. Catimimi.
