Test Case: - log into a desktop session - run "w" and see if there is a display associated with the session - should work with the update Regression potential: The utmp,wtmp records could be wrong --- utmp records generated by LightDM do not have the X display address in the ut_host field. It is not documented that this field should be used in this way, but this is what GDM does.
