Are the startx-launched and kdm-launched X daemons using the same config file? Check the top of /var/log/Xorg.*.log for sure.

When kdm starts it it doesn't look in your homedir :) -- Doug White | FreeBSD: The Power to Serve [email protected] | www.FreeBSD.org _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-mobile To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
