Hello all, at first dpkg-buildpackage would return an error but upon inspecting messages I concluded that it was possible a permission problem and gave up -rfakeroot and run it with sudo:
$ sudo dpkg-buildpackage -b -uc It took almost half-an-hour in my old 400MHz AMD but at the end I had my deb package. I used gdebi which advised that the package was the same version as the most current one and offered to reinstall it. I accepted and it was reinstalled. After installation the upgrade available icon appeared and the in upgrade manager offered to update the same package which I decided not to. After restarting the computer I tried to make the xdmcp connection and it worked :-). However, the desktop was set to a 1400 x 1050 instead of my usual 1024 x 768. In fact, only when I accidentally brought the pointer to the top edge and noticed the backgrounf scrolling down I realized what was going on. I then scrolled the program bar into view and corrected the resolution. In all, it seems to be working fine. I'm uploading the package to one of my websites so all can have it: exportdriver.com/gdm-patched.tar.gz. Thanks to all that helped me with this. It was a great learning experience and I come out with the feeling I did something useful for the community. -- Remote Login via XDMCP is not working in Ubuntu Gusty/7.10 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/150193 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
