Re: [TCLUG:3548] xdm



If you can get in at all, I think there is a .xsession-errors, or something
real similar to that.  It might give you some clues...

The file is probably in your home directory, but I could be wrong.  You may
have to use a different screen (alt-f6) or something to get in....YMMV.
