Hi All,
Fedora 17 + TDE user. I created the file /etc/sysconfig/desktop, with the line: DISPLAYMANAGER=/opt/trinity/bin/kdm The login window was represented 800x600 pixels (or less) and once completed, it is Gnome that was executed with the correct screen resolution (1280x1024). Whereas without this line, I have the choice between Gnome and Tde. Once in Tde, TDE seems to function almost normally.
Cheers Patrick

J'ai créé le fichier /etc/sysconfig/desktop, comportant la ligne: DISPLAYMANAGER=/opt/trinity/bin/kdm La fenêtre de login était représentée en 800x600 pixels (ou moins) et une fois complété, c'est Gnome qui a été exécuté avec la bonne définition d'écran (1280x1024). Alors que sans cette ligne, j'ai le choix entre Gnome et Tde. On fois Tde démarré, TDE semble fonctionner presque normalement.

Sounds like a problem with the TDE display manager start script, though the RedHat/Fedora maintainer(s) would know better than I would. ;-)

Hello, as far as I know, there is no such kdm startup script in Fedora. There is only a wrapper script that chooses between gdm, kdm and xdm and runs it without specific options.
I already noticed that, on a dual screen Centos 6 computer, KDM starts in single screen mode (but with correct resolution), then TDE session starts in single screen too, and I must activate the 2nd screen via krandrtray. When using GDM, the login screen is immediatly in dual screen, and the TDE session too, I have nothing to do.
So I think there is something to configure in KDM (in kdmrc file maybe ?) but I don't think it is distribution specific.

My OS is Fedora 16, and with the following patch: --- /etc/X11/prefdm.00 2011-10-26 03:47:44.000000000 +0800 +++ /etc/X11/prefdm 2012-02-11 10:34:27.000000000 +0800 @@ -15,6 +15,9 @@ if [ -f /etc/sysconfig/desktop ]; then preferred=/usr/sbin/gdm elif [ "$DISPLAYMANAGER" = KDE ]; then preferred=/usr/bin/kdm + elif [ "$DISPLAYMANAGER" = TDE ]; then + preferred="/opt/trinity/bin/kdm -config /opt/trinity/share/config/kdm/kdmrc" + splash_quit_command="plymouth quit" elif [ "$DISPLAYMANAGER" = WDM ]; then preferred=/usr/bin/wdm splash_quit_command="plymouth quit"
Then modify file "/etc/sysconfig/desktop" with the line: DISPLAYMANAGER="TDE"
All seems work.
