[Bug 242502] Re: Can't get rid of nolisten tcp in kdmrc

[dusc]

This morning, I went through this on a fresh upgrade to 8.04 LTS.

In /etc/kde3/kdm/kdmrc, commenting out "ServerArgsLocal=-nolisten tcp"
was not sufficient.  The associated comment line is incorrect.  The
Default value was "-nolisten tcp" not "", so the empty value must be
explicit.  I commented out the line and replaced it with
"ServerArgsLocal=" to make X11 listen for TCP connections.

In /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc, I replaced "exec /usr/bin/X11/X -dpi 100
-nolisten tcp"  with "exec /usr/bin/X11/X -dpi 100".  I believe this is
required, but I've not tested it.

Logging out is not sufficient to restart KDE, nor is restarting X11.
Reboot the OS, or [if you're a bit more savvy and want to save a minute]
you can log out and restart KDE3 manually.

For the Novices: Don't forget to use the xhost command and set your
DISPLAY arguments.
