in my /etc/init.d/xdm there is a line # This script then just calls "tellinit a", and init will run actually the program involved is "telinit" with just one "l". for newbies trying to understand the startup-scripts this can be quite confusing. and if you are already editing this file: three lines above there is a "runleve" instead of a "runlevel". Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
Newbies really have no reason to look at that ;) I'll make the change to the modular version of xdm but changing the monolithic xorg is a little more difficult. I'll let Donnie decide if that should be done.
Changes committed to x11-apps/xdm.
Nope, fixing the modular is enough; that's where we are, moving into the future. Thanks!
