| From: envbvs@epb2.lbl.gov (Brian V. Smith) | | [ problem description deleted ] | | How are you starting xdm? It should NOT be started by /etc/ttys, which | would start a new one everytime you log out. Is should be started once | in, say /etc/rc.local and never again. Actually, if you use the -nodaemon flag with xdm, you can avoid the behaviour you describe. Here is the /etc/ttys we use. :0 "/usr/bin/X11/xdm -nodaemon" none on secure Cimarron Taylor Electronics Research Laboratory / POSTGRES project University of California, Berkeley cimarron@postgres.berkeley.edu
