I believe it will have to be fixed in both gdm and kdm, and that no
clean solution exist to solve it in usplash.  The existing solutions
from Ubuntu solve the problem in kdm and gdm.  Why do you want to
reassign it to usplash?  How do you propose it is solved there?  Is
there something wrong with the proposed solution and the API provided
by initscripts?

Just to make sure it is clear.  We in the Debian Edu need a solution
to this in Lenny.  A package ping-pong seem likely to take a long
time, and thus will not make a solution show up in Lenny.  The only
alternative seem to be for us to fork kdm and maintain our own version
in our own repository.  We really would like to avoid this.

Happy hacking,
