What version of gdm are you using? In 10.0 gdm did indeed move to /opt/gnome/sbin but there is a compatibility link in /opt/gnome/bin for supplementary GNOME. Just used the standard gnome provided by SuSE10.0 (Box) in a diskless environment. I rechecked that again: On my reference machine (standard SuSE desktop) the checkproc works for both versions /opt/gnome/bin/gdm and /opt/gnome/sbin/gdm. On my diskless machine (cloned filesystem from that reference machine) it works only for /opt/gnome/sbin/gdm :-(( I'm using UnionFS on that machine. /proc/PID/exe and cmdline seems OK to me (on that machine too) - so no clue what the difference is. Sorry for bothering with such specifics! So a change in Xsetup would help to avoid that problem, but is no a general issue ... mass reopening all SuSE Linux bugs that are set to REMIND+LATER to change the resolution to WONTFIX (adapting to new policy) mass reopening all SuSE Linux bugs that are set to REMIND+LATER to change the resolution to WONTFIX (adapting to new policy) mass reopening all SuSE Linux bugs that are set to REMIND+LATER to change the resolution to WONTFIX (adapting to new policy) Closing old LATER+REMIND bugs as WONTFIX - if you still plan to work on it, feel free to reopen and set to ASSIGNED. In case the report saw repeated reopen comments, it's due to bugzilla timing out on the huge request ;( |
Hi!! In that block gdm could not be found, because it is installed in "sbin": # /etc/X11/xdm/Xsetup # # Check if gdm is running # gnome2root=/opt/gnome/bin gdmpid=/var/run/gdm.pid gdm=no for p in ${gnome2root}/gdm \ ${gnome2root}/gdm-binary do test -f $p || continue /sbin/checkproc -p $gdmpid $p &> /dev/null && gdm=yes done Result is, that a background picture is shown and xconsole covers all the menu access left bottom corner ... Ciao, Dirk
