[RULE] Graphical Login on Slinky (was LTSP 4 on Slinky)

Hi friends,
In the meantime I am a small step further. Means I
got graphical login at the LT-Server (a ruleified system). I checked all
beneath:

inittab:
 id:5:initdefault:
 x:5:respawn:/etc/X11/prefdm -nodaemon

Additionally I had to edit /etc/X11/xdm/Xservers and to enable the line:
   #:0 local /usr/X11R6/bin/X

by removing the leading #. This brought me to the result that I had exactly the
same problem on the server as I had on the clients: Loginwindow appears, but
iceWM does not show up. Instead I fall back to the Loginwindow. So this is no
more a LTSP-problem. It cooks down to the question, how can I enable xdm on
Slinky (the above seems to me _almost_ complete), and how to let iceWM start.


For completeness the logfile:

~/.xsession-errors:
   IceWM: using /home/u1/.icewm for private configuration files
   Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server
   Xlib: No protocol specified
   
   IceWM: Impossible d'ouvrir le Display :0. Le serveur X doit être lancé et 
   la variable $DISPLAY positionnée.



regards, ingo
