Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xauth
When I try to connect to ssh server running in Ubuntu Karmic with X forwarding enabled I get problem that xauth doesn't have access to write to /var/run/gdm/. There is no problem if I'm already logged in locally with same user because authentication file already exits.
