Both gdm and kdm worked before I rebuilt and reinstalled X. I
recently updated X on my system by doing the following:
1. Updated the sources in xsrc using cvs update -dP
2. Set the variable USE_XF86_4=YES in /etc/mk.conf
3. make all >& build.log in xsrc
4. make install >& install.log in xsrc
After doing this I can no longer login using either. I have the
following lines in rc.local where one or the other is left commented.
/usr/local/bin/gdm
#/usr/local/bin/kdm
The console shows the following error message after attempting to
start gdm
Shared object "libXdmcp.so.6" not found
and when attempting to start kdm
Shared object "libXau.so.6" not found
I have the files,
/usr/X11R6/lib/libXdmcp.a
/usr/X11R6/lib/libXau.a
, but no *.so.6 files for either. Can someone let me know if these
are included with a working X? Any other suggestions on how to fix
this? I can include the log files specified above if that would be
helpful. I'm running 2.0_BETA right now.
