From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.5; Windows NT 5.0) My system uses a 400 MHz Celeron processor ,an Intel 440BX chipset, Nvidia GeForce2 MX video card, with a 45GB WD drive. Message displayed when kdm crashes: The application kdm (kdm) crashed and caused signal 11(SIGSEGV)... (see backtrace) This is the second of two bugs I've entered against 'fisher'. The first involves a problem with Disk Druid creating partitions on a 45GB hard disk and does not happen with Redhat 7.0 or other Linux distributions. This might or might not be related and I only entioned it her because kdm appears to have problems reading configuration files. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Installed 'Fisher' with GeForce2 MX video card 2. Choose to lauch X-Windows as default login. 3. Rebooted and launched Linux. Expected Results: KDE should have launched and displayed login screen.
