Subject: ldm: when user selects session, /etc/X11/Xsession isn't used

Date: Wed, 24 Sep 2008 00:00:51 -0700

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Package: ldm
Version: 2:2.0.6-2
Severity: important
Tags: patch

when logging in using ldm, if a user selects a session from the
preferences menu, ldm does not use /etc/X11/Xsession (it calls the
session/window manager binary directly), and then all the hooks in
/etc/X11/Xsession.d are not called, resulting in a session that isn't
consistant with the default session.

attached is a patch to fix this, backported from upstream bzr.

live well,
