I have tried using "xdm -daemon" and/or (according to documentation) setting "DisplayManager.DISPLAY.TerminateServer: FALSE" in /usr/lib/X11/xdm/xdm-config but after the initial user xsession is completed, xdm exits to the invoking shell. I have created an init system state 4 which starts up xdm in a shell script in /etc/rc4.d/, but I am just trying to get this to work from the shell command line first. Once I get xdm configured correctly, how does one shutdown under xdm? -- Markus R. markus@ti.com A .sig file? I don't have any spare inodes!
