Dear Managers,
I run Dunix 4.0b (all patches) on several machines (AS 1000, DEC3000 & 4000)
using xdm.
It appens that when logging in from the main display (:0) sometimes
after you password has been checked you are logged out before any window
is opened.
You have to login a second time and this 2nd try is always succesfull.

Here follows the contents of /usr/lib/X11/xdm/xdm-errors

Screen 0 p00041011 revision # 3 8 bits/pixel 2097152 bytes VRAM
errfile=/usr/users/lele/.xsession-errors
FreeFontPath: FPE "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/decwin/100dpi/" refcount is 2, should be 1; fixing.


This is the error log after the first unsuccessfull login.
The second login is always succesfull.

Do you have any ideas how to avoid that noisy behaviour ?

Thanks from Italy,
Emanuele
