This bug was fixed in the package lightdm - 1.4.0-0ubuntu3 --------------- lightdm (1.4.0-0ubuntu3) raring; urgency=low
[ Michael Terry ] * debian/02_disable_tests.patch, debian/rules: - Drop patch, disable test suite during build by just overriding dh_auto_test. This way we can still manually run tests * debian/control, debian/tests: - Add dep8 tests to run upstream test suite. The suite only works once lightdm is installed into PREFIX. So we must run via dep8. Disabled for now until the next upstream release. * debian/patches/05_add_xserver_core_option.patch: - Modify test X server to also accept -core * debian/patches/10_selective_mlock.patch: - Backport patch from upstream to not use mlockall for the daemon (LP: #1074279) * debian/rules: - Use ./autogen.sh when running dh_autoreconf [ Matt Fischer ] * debian/lightdm.install: - Remove duplicate entry /usr/share/man - Install apport hook * debian/lightdm.postinst: - Fix ownership of /var/lib/lightdm * debian/lightdm.postrm: - Correctly remove /var/lib/lightdm on uninstall * debian/source_lightdm.py: - Update apport hook -- Michael Terry <mte...@ubuntu.com> Thu, 31 Jan 2013 11:05:23 -0500 ** Changed in: lightdm (Ubuntu Raring) Status: In Progress => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to lightdm in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1074279 Title: lightdm uses ~30 Mb of RAM Status in Light Display Manager: Fix Committed Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “lightdm” source package in Raring: Fix Released Bug description: After loging in into the XCFE environment, I open a terminal and perform a top. If I sort the processes by decreasing resident memory, I see that lightdm requires 32MB of memory, that is more than X ! Since lightdm just sleeps after login in, I think it is wasting memory. Could it possibly load/unload features dynamically as gdm already did (many small processes which were launched when a feature was required) ?
