Hi all
to-day I successfully updated Xorg (from 6.x to 7.x).
A little trouble only; on boot I receive the following error message:

Setting up kdm . . .
start-stop-daemon: option `--exec' requires an argument
Try `start-stop-daemon --help' for more information
*ERROR: could not start the Display Manager

Well, I tried `start-stop-daemon --help' but I did not understand much.
So I ran 'kdm' from command line and . . . KDE works!

How can I make kdm start on boot again?

Ciao
emilio
