Just a little confusion configuring gdm, kdm, xdm for testing purposes

[Aadil H]

Binary package hint: xdm

I believe this issue was caused because the xdm was installed & in use, i then removed & reinstalled kdm to be able to select default display manager & set this back to gdm while removing xdm.

This may have caused the fault.

I'm a new user so i dont know the technical details.

Hi aadilh,

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering is this still an issue for you? Can you try with the latest development release of Ubuntu? (ISO CD images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/)

If it remains an issue, could you also attach a new /var/log/Xorg.0.log?
Thanks in advance.

I do believe this was a minor fault which was solved with other updates
