Hy, Hung, thanks for your answer.

I don't have consolekit at boot runlevel. Don't even have it emerged yet.
Didn't know I was supposed to. Doing so right now.

Meanwhile, I have no xdm log, but in kdm.log there is a difference during
my  login and my wife's login, it is this only two entries in
/var/log/kdm.log after my wife's user login:

(EE) XKB: No components provided for device Virtual core keyboard
(EE) XKB: No components provided for device Virtual core keyboard

I've done a search for "Virtual core" and didn't find a thing up to now.

Any hint?

Thanks again
Francisco
