kdm segfaults on XDMCP requests. Remote X clients are unable to connect but local client is functionnal. Am retro-reporting this from bugs.kde.org for it's already reported as fixed. Key entries in the message logfiles kdm[15905]: Unknown session exit code 0 (sig 11) from manager process NOTE: Mentionned URL contains a patch (haven't tested it yet but am about to) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
The patch from bugs.kde.org doesn't work for me. I created a new ebuild based on the original one with just the patch added. Executing "Xnest :100 -query localhost" I get the same error as before: "Unknown session exit code 0 (sig 11) from manager process". I could not yet try it from a remote host though.
I was able to fix it manually and it worked fine for me. I used ebuild command sequences (unpack, [fix source code] + compile, merge ) to perform the merging sequence... I haven't tried using Xnest though (really neat...didn't know about this extremely useful command)... I will try and report to see it Xnested sessoins crash with the fix applied.

Hi, > I tested it with my modified kdm and it works fine here. I'd suspect that your > patch is not being applied correctly. Yes, you're right. I tried it again - this time using your way (ebuid ... unpack, fix, compile, merge) - and now it works. Thanks for your help, Alex
Applied in kdebase-3.4.3-r1/kdm-3.4.3-r1. Thanks.
