Something has changed, after changing run levels and setting debug mode for
XDM,
telinit 3
xdm -debug 10 -nodaemon
I did a reboot and now the Win2K box won't connect anymore (checkboard
pattern, no login). I have attached the linux gdm.conf file and included the
xdm-config file. Also is a log entry from the /var/log/gdm directory.


Confirmed GDM is the *dm running:

[kdw@gaia ~]$ ps -ef |grep gdm
root      1056     1  0 09:46 ?        00:00:00 /usr/bin/gdm-binary
