GDM is installed.
|
|
|
|
Do _NOT_ use /etc/ttys to start gdm at boot time. This will result in gdm
|
|
hanging or restarting constantly. Instead, copy the included gdm.sh.sample
|
|
script to gdm.sh, and restart. This script is found, by default, in
|
|
/usr/X11R6/etc/rc.d.
|
|
|
|
GDM uses its own locale.alias file to determine its language and especially
|
|
the GNOME-2 fontencoding. This file is located, by default, in
|
|
/usr/X11R6/etc/gdm/locale.alias. By default, the character set for every
|
|
county using the EURO currency is set to ISO8859-15 in order to enable the
|
|
EURO sign. If you don't feel comfortable with this, edit this file according
|
|
to your preferences.
|
|
|
|
If you are running 5.x and you are running 5.1-RELEASE or earlier, GDM will
|
|
fail to work due to a bug in OpenPAM. You can download a patch from
|
|
http://www.FreeBSD.org/~marcus/pam_get_user.c.diff. You must also have the
|
|
FreeBSD src tree on your system. Do the following to apply the patch:
|
|
|
|
# cd /usr
|
|
# patch -p < /path/to/pam_get_user.c.diff
|
|
|
|
|
|
Then rebuild and install world. Note, this bug does _NOT_ affect FreeBSD
|
|
4.x.
