Bug#452344: More info

[Bernard Gray]

It was brought to my attention that perhaps some extra info was required - I

# echo /usr/sbin/gdm > /etc/X11/default-display-manager

then start gdm with

# /etc/init.d/gdm start

This draws the error because of the following test:

$ grep "Not starting" gdm.init -B 2
  start)
        if [ -e "$DEFAULT_DISPLAY_MANAGER_FILE" -a
"$HEED_DEFAULT_DISPLAY_MANAGER" = "true" -a "$(cat
$DEFAULT_DISPLAY_MANAGER_FILE 2> /dev/null)" != "$DEBCONF_DAEMON" ];
then
                log_action_msg "Not starting GNOME Display Manager; it
is not the default display manager"

I hope that is enough info -

Regards,
Bernie
