RH7.2 X Upgrade problem

[Joe T]

Clean install of RH7.2. The video card is not directly supported in the included X server, so I upgrade to the latest and greatest. It installs fine and works fine. Only problem - at runlevel 5, it goes to a generic login screen and twm. If I boot to runlevel 3 and either startx or xinit, I'm fine (KDE login screen & KDE). Any ideas?

I dont have KDE installed, so I cant prove my theory... but in /etc/X11/xinit theres a symlink called xinitrc - it points to the file for whatever WM you wanna run. cd to /etc/X11/xinit, rm -f xinitc and then ln -s xinitrc.kde xinitrc. See if that works :D

TTFN,
