Hi,

I recently re-built my Quadra 650 with NetBSD 1.5.0. It installs and runs
well. I configured XDM and that works great in 1bpp mode with the black and
white Xwindows. However if I install the colour X, XDM logs in then, dumps
the user and re-presents the login window. XDM error log reports:

Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server

This is a common error, which I have tried to fix with the usual solutions
with no success.

This machine has a NuBus RadiusPrecision card (without a monitor) in it. I
have tried with and without this card too, it doesn't make any difference.

If I don't use XDM, and use startx from the command prompt,  colour X
windows works well.

Any ideas?

Cheers, Paul.
