All,
TDE crash on start:
The big issue is that TDE crashes on start without any apparent error or
anything written to .xsession-errors. After selecting the username from
the
chooser list in tdm and entering the password, the following occurs:
(1) login appears to proceed
(2) normal black background and default X-cursor appears
(3) 3-5 additional seconds of load takes place, then
(4) tde crashes and tdm login re-appears.
So I look around to find out if there are any clues. None apparent.
/var/tmp/kdecache-root was created, but nothing in it, then I check disk
space
left. WTF?? Something has taken 7.8G of room on my / partition and I have
no
room left on my drive?? Searching...
/var/log/tdm.log 5876092928 - WHAT? 5.8G log file??
I could not preserve the file because I had no way to compress it and
git it
out of my virtual machine. I'll restart and try and capture a smaller log.
What
in the heck could be causing tdm.log to explode like this? I know it would
help
to see what was inside, but that will have to wait until I can get shared
folders setup and get another log out of the VM....
Anybody else ever experience this?

Not I, and this sounds pretty nasty. I'd love to have a look inside. ;-)
