    XDMCP logs in with screen upside down and backwards

    I'm try to use XDMCP to login in to a remote computer. The login screen shows up normal after connecting. Once I login, this is what I see:

    To close that window I have to click the bottom right corner (were the close button should be.)

    Anyone have an Idea?

    EDIT: It must be on the remote computer because when I connect to a different computer, everything is normal. Also notice in the screen shot that the mouse cursor is still right side up!

    Wow! No one has replied in a day. I figure that I will bump this from the 10th page and sit back and wait....

    Thanks to who ever replys.

    Very intriguing...

    What video card are you using?

    Could you post your gdm.conf and custom.conf?

    It was the videocard on the remote computer. It has a 32mb Nvidia card. I had to disable the drivers. Works fine now.

    I can't quite remember. I had this problem almost six months ago. I think I disabled the restricted drivers and used the default drivers.
