Hello,
I installed a debian lenny on a pc i386, for a school I manage.
This pc is intented to be an applications server, so I installed as I
usually do for etch: xorg, xfce, xdm (we use old pc configured as X
terminals), and then all the configuration stage for using the nis
server, nfs server, ad so on.
When I boot the machine, everything is OK, and I get the xdmcp chooser
screen, displayed by the "primary xdmcp server", which gives all the
avalaible applications servers of the lan.
Then I choose as server the pc itself, which is a normal procedure with
etch.
I should then get the login window of xdm, but I only get a grey screen
typical of X, or, coarsely half time, the X server crashes and I get
back to tty1.
tty1 displays a backtrace which first line is:
0: /usr/bin/X11/X(xf86SigHandler+0x7e) [0x80c91fe]
and last line is:
8: /usr/bin/X11/X(FontFileCompleteXFLD+0x21d) [0x8073a81]
I don't know how to use this information.
Anybody can help?
Thanks.
