Very Computer

Hello

I've just installed the CDE+AccelaretedX (from xinside) on my
linux machine ( RedHat 4.0 Linux 2.0.25) but I'm having a few
problems.

My problem is that i can't login to the "Regular session". After writing
my
passwd I get to see the copyright message for a while just to return to
the dtlogin picture.

The "Failsafe" session works allright so here are my files:

~/.dt/errorlog
-------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Jan 09 23:00:27 1997
Workspace Manager: I/O error on display:: :0.0
-------------------------------------------------------------

~/.dt/startlog
-------------------------------------------------------------

--- execing /usr/dt/bin/dtsession...
not sourcing /root/.profile (see /root/.dtprofile)
X connection to :0.0 broken (explicit kill or server shutdown).
-------------------------------------------------------------

The Accelerated-X server works great with all my other window-managers
so I think that the problem is somewhere in the CDE, But since it's
a newly installed system and I have not changed any of the config files
it seems strange why it should not work.

Is there a way to start the dtwm manually? like running xinit and then
starting the window manager?

How can I see where in the dtssesion the process has faild? The startlog
message does not give a lot of information.

Any clues? Thanks in advance

Michael

localhost.ekh(905)> cat /etc/host.conf
order hosts,bind
multi on

With the host.conf file, CDE, which needs to see a proper loopback,
looks first at the hosts file, then at the dns entries in resolv.conf.
If you had tried to log in with a net connection/ppp connection you
would have been able to get in...

At least I got a new error message to worry about :-)

What RPC service is not enabled?? any clues?

Thanks in advance

See a linux-kernel mailing-list archive for the*details if you
are interrested.

I don't expect it to have anything to do with your problems, but you
will likely have problems with disappearing windows and other strange
problems without this fix.

Linux 1.2.13 and 2.0.26++ doesn't have this problem.
