Hi,

Can you please provide some more information about this problem?

1) Can you determine at least a ballpark figure of when this functionality
   broke?  The XSF hasn't been messing with session management, so my best
   guess would be that this broke upstream in 4.3.0.  The last 4.2.1
   packages are available for most architectures at snapshot.debian.net.
     http://snapshot.debian.net/archive/2004/02/14/debian/pool/main/x/xfree86/

   Please downgrade to that version (or install it in a chroot).

2) Can you provide a recipe for reproducing this problem?  I have to admit
   I don't use xsm myself.
