hi all,

anyone using wdm?
the init script won't run here.
if I put echo's in all branches of the test, none show up on "telinit run wdm 
start", which makes me think the start() function is never run.

any suggestions?

the print_status success, and both silly echo messages were added by me as 
checkpoints


#!/bin/bash

PROGRAM=/usr/bin/wdm
RUNLEVEL=5
PROVIDES=display_manager

. /etc/init.d/smgl_init

# overrides default start function, ensuring
# that wdm releases control back to init system.
start ()
{
  echo "Starting wdm..."
  if [[ -e /usr/bin/wdm ]] ; then
          echo "I'm in the if part..."
          print_status success
          /usr/bin/wdm -config /etc/wdm/wdm-config &
  else
    echo "I'm in the else part..."
    print_status failure
    exit 1
  fi
}
