Description of problem: I installed steam with 'urpmi steam' and after that, I uninstalled it with 'urpme steam' and 'urpme --auto-orphans'. Then, when I boot my PC I have to startx manually because kdm doesn't work. Even I have unistalled and installed kdm again, but doesn't work. Reproducible: Steps to Reproduce:
any errors in /var/log/kdm.log ? what does have orphans removed ? it should likely not be related to steam
Keywords: (none) => NEEDINFO
/var/log/kdm.log returns: The XKEYBOARD keymap compiler (xkbcomp) reports: Warning: Compat map for group 2 redifined Using new definition Warning: Compat map for group 3 redifined Using new definition Warning: Compat map for group 4 redifined Using new definition Errors from xkbcomp are not fatal to the X sever This text is repeated 5 times. Finally, the log ends with: "Server terminated succesfully (0). Closing log file"
Could not reproduce on Mageia 3 stable. Most likely you hit another issue unrelated to Steam, making that you had a vital package for KDM marked as an orphan (prior to removing Steam).
