Bug#615020: xdm: ConsoleKit support
Package: xdm
Version: 1:1.1.11-1
Followup-For: Bug #615020
Dear Maintainer,
As XDM doesn't support consolekit directly, users must take a couple
potentially non-obvious steps to get NetworkManager and XFCE4 Power
Manager (and likely similar systems) to run. Specifically, someone
using XDM must remove the "nox11" directive from the consolekit line
in /etc/pam.d/common-session and then launch their session manager
through ck-launch-session in their .xsession file.
There is a patch for this included in bug #17325 in the FreeDesktop.org
Bugzilla. I'm not presently familiar enough with the code to usefully
review it.
