Hi all,

using pkgsrc on my Slackware for PowerPC (Slackintosh) i met some
problems.

I installed Slackintosh and pkgsrc as described for Slackware on
http://users.piuha.net/martti/comp/slackware/slackware.html.

Differences are:
My System has some more packages needed for Linux on PPC and i did
not compile my own Kernel beause I am lucky with the one from
Slackintosh.

Using pkgsrc from FTP not from CVS.


My problems:

1)
I want to boot directly into X using XDM. That does not work. I get
some messages "Starting X session manager" followed by a message like
"Starting to fast - pause for 5 minutes". Using KDM works just fine,
but I would prefer XDM for some reasons. /var/log/xdm.log is empty.

(BTW: KDM does not take changes I do in kcontrol)

2)
I want to use Samba with Konqueror and installed kdebase3 with support
for Samba. Starting Samba via "/usr/pkg/etc/rc.d/samba start" i get the
message that /etc/rc.subr does not exists. So I installed the
Samba-package shipped with Slackintosh and Samba works with Konqueror,
but i'd prefer to use Samba from pkgsrc.

3)
For upgrading my basesystem I would like to use slackpkg which depends
on some libs. These are installed via pkgsrc (I find them using locate)
but slackpkg does not find them. How do I tell my basesystem where to
find librarys installed by pkgsrc?
