OK, I have been fighting this for 3 days now. I went through the pain of upgrading to 4.3 and hopefully rooting out all of the extra Xft and fontconfig clutter on my disk, but I cannot get gdm2 to operate. After much wailing and gnashing of teeth, I think I have finally driven out the last of the Xft2 bugs and gotten rid of all of the old font-cache-1 files, but gdm refuses to start. I can use startx just fine to start up gnome-session, but gdm just plain refuses to start. I cannot get anything meaningful out of the debugging output other than it appears that it is the greeter which is dying. Does anyone have any suggestions? How do I get more info from gdm? /Joe To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-gnome" in the body of the message
