1 Hi,
2
3 I installed KDE 3.5.2. and I installed IceWM 1.2.23.
4 When kdm is started the session type popup chooser shows me
5 "IceWM", ok.
6
7 Then...Yesterday IceWM 1.2.27 was released and I wanted to see, whats
8 new. I did a emerge -C icewm and installed the new icewm by hand
9 (using paco). I configured with the option
10 "--with-kdedatadir=/usr/kde/3.5".
11
12 Compiling/installing works fine.
13
14 BUT: The session type "IceWM" vanished.
15
16 Restart KDE (and even the LINUX) yield nothing.
17
18 Hmmmm....
19
20 I removed all files of IceWM 1.2.27 and emerged the old IceWM
21 again...TADA! My beloved session type was there again.
22
23 So I am asking myself: What file and/or configuration option is
24 missing. when I install IceWM myself ?
25
26 Thank you very much in advance for any help or hint !
27 Keep hacking!
