It must be a year or so now with all different kernels. On boot up kdm fires |
| 2 |
up, but within 5 seconds or so and while the use is busy entering their |
| 3 |
passwd on the kdm screen, it suddenly returns to the console. Alt+F7 brings |
| 4 |
them back to their kdm, but this behaviour is clearly wrong. I suspect that |
| 5 |
this is caused by dhcpcd getting an IP address, or vixie cron (the last two |
| 6 |
things shown on the console when the user gets dumped back on it) but I can't |
| 7 |
understand why these two services will cause such a problem on this machine, |
| 8 |
when other machines with the same services work fine. |

Any ideas on how to troubleshoot this one? I can't see anything amiss on |
| 11 |
dmesg, or messages/syslog. |
