Hallo
I did install SL5.5 i386 form the minimal live disk. I installed kdm and removed gdm. Now root can't login at kdm. root is able to start a normal KDE session by console login and run startx. How do I enable root login for kdm? -------------------- Tapani

http://www.ispexperts.com.np/?p=744 but it expects gdm. I suppose check and see if kdm has the same?

There is a file 'somewhere', where /usr/bin/gdm needs to be changed to /usr/bin/kdm...or something like that....google /usr/bin/gdm and find where it is. -------------------- DΞLL Precision M6700: 17 inch NB//i7-quad w/USB 3.0, 16.0GB, Quadro K5000M 2.0GB DDR3, RGBLED //W8P64/Scientific Linux 6.4 x64
