rc-update
I have emerged xdm but rc-update add xdm default gives '/etc/init.d/xdm' not found.
How can I get the script into /etc/init.d/xdm? |
Something may be amiss here...did you verify that the xdm emerge went ok? Does ls /etc/init.d/ show any dm?
|
I don't remember seeing any errors on the xdm emerge but there is no xdm in /etc/init.d.
Should I try it again do you think? |
That script is not part of xdm, as odd as it might sound.
xdm has actually two meanings:
So, the xdm service can call the xdm display manager, but also any other display manager. The x11-apps/xdm package contains the xdm display manager. The xdm service is contained in x11-apps/xinit. The mystery now is "why the hell isn't that package already installed?". That package should have been installed as a dependency when you installed Xorg. It doesn't only hold the xdm init script, but also some very important files like startx or xinit... |
