no, it is not. the purpose of LDM_XSESSION is to replace /etc/X11/Xsession (on debian and derivatives), which does more than simply start a session. you'll miss out on all the usefull things in /etc/X11/Xsession.d/* if you do that. other distributions have Xsession scripts that also do useful intialization steps. LDM_SESSION is the correct thing to use to replace your desktop session, and it sounds like you've hit a bug in a particular version of ldm that has since been fixed. alternately, i don't know if ubuntu has separate session types for unity vs. classic gnome with update-alternatives, but i'd suggest looking at what the following has to offer: sudo update-alternatives --config x-session-manager that's to be run on your server, and is a standard way to set the default desktop session (at least on debian derivatives, such as ubuntu). live well, vagrant ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Why Cloud-Based Security and Archiving Make Sense Osterman Research conducted this study that outlines how and why cloud computing security and archiving is rapidly being adopted across the IT space for its ease of implementation, lower cost, and increased reliability.
