(In reply to comment #10) > Hrm. What about the comments from Loic? I don't think our comments conflict. Loic was concerned about adding dependencies, and I was suggesting making them soft rather than hard dependencies.
The only real concern that I see is Michael's: > Typically xinit is not run as a root, so the user does not have enough > permissions to create a session with parameters. > I question weather or not we should try to move this call into X? X is setuid > root. I admit that I did not read that comment the first time through as it was collapsed in my view of the bug. On darwin, we trigger a LaunchDaemon in startx to do some privileged actions for xinit (like creating /tmp/.X11-unix). How is this currently handled on other OSs? Still as an init script? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xinit in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/199486 Title: ConsoleKit integration To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xinit/+bug/199486/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
