I am facing login problem with KDM. I am not able to login with KDM as well as XDM. But login through Virtual Console is working fine. I tried log in with other username. But that works only with XDM and not KDM. I reinstalled KDM but no go. I even tried removing ~/.kde but still same problem. ~/.xsession-errors shows only one error > Failed to start SCIM < What can be the problem? Is there any other file where I can check for KDM logs? -- With Regards Abhishek Amberkar There is no operating system but GNU, and Linux is one of its kernels.
