Hi debian-x people!

I was looking trough our RC bugs and stumbled upon this one. It is not clear 
to me if this is or not a bug in kdm or xserver-xorg. Anyway, for solving this 
RC bug for Wheezy, we can:

- Add the hack in kdm. Ugly and punishes other users with a 1 second delay, 
but it still can work.
- Add the aforementioned commit to xserver-xorg and reassign this bug.
- Any other ideas?

Kinds regards, Lisandro.
