From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Konqueror/3.5; Linux; X11; en_US) KHTML/3.5.0 (like Gecko) Description of problem: kdm calls /usr/X11R6/bin/X to start the X server which no longer exists and it should be /usr/bin/X instead. You may be able to fix this but I found it to be difficult since configure seems to use imake and imake still refers to old paths. I filed this with Mike Harris too but the general idea is not to use imake any more since X itself does not use it. Perhaps you can path something in the configure script to change it instead. I changed bunch of things in *.cf *.tmpl files for imake and got it to finally pick the right path. Otherwise system hangs for people trying to reboot with kdm. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kdebase-0. How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Do "strings /usr/bin/kdm | grep R6" 2. or restart kdm after installing modular X 3. Additional info:
This is also the case in FC5test1. mkdir /usr/X11R6/bin ln -s /usr/bin/X /usr/X11R6/bin/X is a quick-and-dirty workaround. I need kdm as a workaround for bug 113153...
The proper fix AFAIK is to bring kdmrc up to date, see bug 166388.
this problem has been fixed in the rawhide. Thanks for your report
