From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.5) Gecko/20031007 Description of problem: This code: if [ -f /etc/sysconfig/desktop ]; then . /etc/sysconfig/desktop if [ "$DISPLAYMANAGER" = GNOME ]; then preferred=gdm elif [ "$DISPLAYMANAGER" = KDE ]; then preferred=kdm elif [ "$DISPLAYMANAGER" = XDM ]; then preferred=xdm fi fi looks for the $DISPLAYMANAGER variable but in the /etc/sysconfig/desktop the variable is called DESKTOP. DISPLAYMANAGER is not defined in other places (I think ...) so the condition will allways be false. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 7.42 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.define in /etc/sysconfig/desktop DESKTOP="KDE" 2.reboot Actual Results: when graphic mode go on gdm started, no kdm. Expected Results: kdm running Additional info: if I define in /etc/sysconfig/desktop DISPLAYMANAGER="KDE" kdm start after reboot.
The code is in the /etc/X11/prefdm file, sorry ...
