Ubfan1's comments (#19, #20 and #21) are not relevant to the bug as it has been described. We were already aware that X sessions could be started on the same vt as the command line that they're launched from.
Further complications from the Nvidia driver would seem to be a separate bug? As the bug forces X to be run with escalated privileges, I would categorise it as a SECURITY bug (which would raise it's BUG HEAT score). However I am not aware of how this is accomplished. I hope that someone will review and comment on this suggestion. -- 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/1562219 Title: Unprivileged xinit wont start in unallocated vt To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xinit/+bug/1562219/+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
