Bug#199715: (no subject)

[dayne@fc.hp.com (Dayne Medlyn)]

Subject: xdm crashes system on IA64
Package: xdm
Version: 4.1.0-16
Severity: grave
Tags: woody

I did a base install on a HP zx2000 with the addition of X11 only.  Each
time xdm starts the box crashes.  I did not see this issue filed in the
database.  I believe this is an issue with using /dev/mem, rather then 
/dev/urandom, to seed the random number generator.  It appears to be
fixed in SID.
