I just tried both wdm_1.27-6 and wdm_1.27-7 and got a problem: 
the N wdm processes for N Sunrays generate loadfactor N.

pstree:

    |-wdm---wdm-+-8*[Xnewt]
    |           `-8*[wdm]

strace attached to one of the offending processes:

wait4(-1, 0xbffff1d4, 0, NULL)          = -1 ECHILD (No child processes)
wait4(-1, 0xbffff1d4, 0, NULL)          = -1 ECHILD (No child processes)
wait4(-1, 0xbffff1d4, 0, NULL)          = -1 ECHILD (No child processes)
wait4(-1, 0xbffff1d4, 0, NULL)          = -1 ECHILD (No child processes)
wait4(-1, 0xbffff1d4, 0, NULL)          = -1 ECHILD (No child processes)
etc.....


Somehow they can't start wdmLogin (SunRay screens show this black/white
pattern - mouse pointer is a cross - of the "naked" X server).

With Debian's wdm_1.27-2.2_i386.deb, my configuration works (besides the
problem that sometimes after logging out the SunRays are stuck in state
"26D"). This is a quite recent Debian/unstable.    

Anything I can do to debug this? 

Best wishes (and many thanks, Michael, for your great "SunRay on 
Debian support"!)
