[gentoo-user] does slim work with xorg-server1.7.3?

I've found the slim login manager will hang the computer if I enter "exit"
or "console" in the panel,
blank screen and no response at all, had to push the reset button to
recover.

I did not test it under the previous xorg-server installation, anybody has
got the same issue?
I've tried to recompile slim but no help

slim 1.3.1 + xorg-server 1.7.3 (with xcb enabled) + awesome3.4.2

thanks
fei

Hey Fei,

I don't have those issues.

I'm using slim 1.3.1-r4 and xorg-server 1.7.3.901-r1.
Are you using the same packages? If not then try upgrading, perhaps that  
will help :-)

thanks for your reply, I've got the same version with yours, lots of
silmilar bugs found by google, I'm wondering if you can properly stop the
slim by running "/etc/init.d/xdm stop"? this is a known bug,  not sure why
you can use it with no issue.

have switched to gdm,  slower but less buggy.

tks
fei
