Subject:    Bug#41989: KDM only starts xterm. Background is not set either

Package: kdm
Version: KDE 3.0.0 
Severity: normal
Installed from:    Slackware Packages
Compiler:          Not Specified
OS:                Linux
OS/Compiler notes: Not Specified

I installed Slackware 8.1 beta2 because it has KDE 3.0 final. I initialized KDM and it worked ok. I \
changed the setting to have a solid black background. But after that I wanted to change it to a bitmap. \
Now there the trouble started. I changed it via the configuration panel in KDE itself. But after that the \
picture did not change at all. After several attempts I decided to delete the kdmrc file in \
/opt/kde/share/config/kdm/. I ran kdm again and of course a grey X window. No KDM. So I started KDE and \
made a new kdmrc file with the control panel and clicked on default. Well the control panel wrote a kdmrc \
file, but now I don't have a wallpaper anymore (moire background from X) but when I login I get only a \
xterm. It doesn't matter which session I select. I am sure it is a settings problem. Please help me out \
because I really like the slick kdm.

Greetings,

Herwarth Heitmann
