I want a CentOS 62 (amd64) KDE desktop with KDM as the GUI login manager. My system environment is as follows: Host OS: openSUSE 11.4 .(amd64) with VirtualBox (64 bit) GuestOS: CentOS 6.2 (amd64) 10GB virtual disk I chose the "Customize Now" option in the installer and chose "KDE" group w/o the "Desktop" group....

Trying to set up ltsp and their instructions are outdated for this setup. this is what I am referencing... http://ltsp.mirrors.tds.net/pub/ltsp/docs/ltsp-4.1-en.html#AEN984 Anyway, KDM is display manager and I am only getting grey screen with X # ps aux|grep kdm root 4275 0.0 0.0 3036 864 ?

We have a pretty standard installation of CentOS 6.4 on our workstations. We've been running into issues where kdm crashes every once in a while when someone tries to log in on the console. The only way to recover when it happens seems to be to restart kdm (kill -HUP `pgrep -f /usr/bin/kdm`) (or reboot of course) and it never seems to happen twice in a row. I am not sure where to start looking to see why k...

Sorry to be so slow in responding. I've done what you suggested. I created /etc/sysconfig/desktop and entered "$DISPLAYMANAGER=KDM". I rebooted but there was no change. GDM is still being used. Any other suggestions? mw ======================== Just create the file /etc/sysconfig/desktop and put in it: DESKTOP=KDM I believe it's DESKTOP - you can dbl check /etc/X11/prefdm Sent from my phoneMike Watson <mike...

...lso disabled the showing of the user list, and disabled logout confirmations. However, none of this has had any effect. The login screen remains the same - showing the userlist and shutdown/reboot commands, and logging out still shows the 30 second confirmation timer. I have compared the /etc/kde/kdm/kdmrc file from the CentOS PC to my Fedora PC and they are similar. (I make the same changes to my work PC, and these take effect.) Anyone any ideas about this?

Hi all, I'm looking for pointer for setting up VNC so that access to the system is via gdm/kdm. Yes, I know about vino, and /etc/sysconfig/vncservers but what I'm looking for is a sertup that allows me to see the *dm login screen instead of being dropped direct into a desktop. Thanks in advance

Is the Xen hypervisor which is acting up or is it the Nvidia drivers ? I dont see anything suspicious in dmesg or Xorg.0.log,the only error i see is from kdm in var log messages.

Hello, I am using a self compiled kde-3.5.10 from ftp.kde.org as a desktop system under CentOS 5.4. Does anybody knows where to get a cve-2010-0436 patch (kdebase, kdm) for kde-3.5.10? Thanks! regards Olaf

Hello, I need the possibility to login to other machines on my network. With kdm it works by choosing "Remote Login" from a menu in the greeter. I would prefer not to use kdm. ;-) I saw that the option "greeter-show-remote-login" should do that for lightdm. I work with a debian "wheezy/testing" system and installed the following packages from the...

i'm using samba 2.2.5 and mandrake 8.5 as a pdc for test. Whenever i create a trust account PC123$ for a machine to login it appears as user in the KDE interface, i know its not samba specific but if i have 100 users thats a lot of $ users on the login list!

...and, if anyone thinks they can help debug the problem. But since Samba 3 is no longer supported, I thought it best to try and install Samba 4. The problem is that Yum complains that Samba 3 conflicts with it. See below. And when I try to erase samba 3, it says it has to remove kdebase and kdm and related packages. Does anyone know a work around? Can I forcibly remove the old Samba 3 without removing the dependencies? Thanks. - Mark .....

Hey, folks, I've got an HP Proliant DL580 G5 throwing ECC errors. This is annoying, since a) it's all new as of a few months ago, and b) it's *fully* populated. The two things I need to figure out are a) *which* DIMM it is, and b) is it mirrored; if so, which *other* DIMM needs to come out until we get replacements from the OEM. Here's one of many, all identical, from dmesg:

I'm working with a FreeBSD user -- a teacher -- who's running KDE on a system on which she neither has nor wants root privileges. She wants to be able to mount and unmount floppies and ZIP cartridges from within KDE, using the standard KwikDisk utility (which, by the way, generates mount and unmount command that don't conform to FreeBSD syntax; however, it appears possible to fix this

Hi all, Is it possible to run cronjobs configured by a user to run only when he/she is logged (via GDM/KDM,etc.)? Thanks.

I have the following line in /etc/ttys: ttyv8 "/usr/local/bin/kdm -nodaemon" xterm on insecure Because of X misconfiguration it constantly crashed, so: kdm-bin[1178]: Unable to fire up local display :0; disabling. So I fix xorg.conf, then I change on => off in ttys, then I do kill -1 1, and X gets started! Seems illogical. Or maybe kdm-bin does som...
