Hi, I'm trying to make LightDM the default DM for our beta XStreamOS Desktop, based on illumos (Solaris). At the moment we have our desktop running with lxdm, and we want to switch. I could patch, build and publish the software. While trying to run it manually from text console, I get a black screen hanging forever. The log stops "DisplayServer x-0: Waiting for ready signal from X server :0". The X server log looks like it is started normally (as it does with lxdm). How can I debug this signal not coming? Thanks for any help Gabriele. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Hi Gabriele, The signal LightDM is waiting for is SIGUSR1 from the X server. This one is kind of hard to debug (and a really nasty method the X server uses to signal readiness). Could you attach the full log? What patches did you apply? Is it Xorg and what version? --Robert On 26 March 2014 01:45, Gabriele Bulfon <gabriele.bulfon at sonicle.com> wrote:> Hi, > > I'm trying to make LightDM the default DM for our beta XStreamOS Desktop, > based on illumos (Solaris). > At the moment we have our desktop running with lxdm, and we want to switch. > > I could patch, build and publish the software. > > While trying to run it manually from text console, I get a black screen > hanging forever. > The log stops "DisplayServer x-0: Waiting for ready signal from X server > :0". > The X server log looks like it is started normally (as it does with lxdm). > > How can I debug this signal not coming? > > Thanks for any help > Gabriele. > > > > _______________________________________________ > LightDM mailing list > LightDM at lists.freedesktop.org > http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/lightdm > >-------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
