The following task has a new comment added:

FS#318 - overwriting DISPLAY variable
User who did this - Alex (Zylgadis)

----------
I can confirm this bug.

information on my end: remote login through XDMCP. awesome is the default wm. I 
have replaced xterm with urxvt on all my machines, together with all respective 
shortcuts and slinks (including in .awesomerc).

Case 1. Start urxvt instead of awesome, then start awesome from urxvt.
a...@smaug:~$ echo $DISPLAY
moxie.cs.oswego.edu:11.0

a...@smaug:~$ awesome &

(I press awesome shortcut to start another copy of urxvt)

urxvt: can't open display moxie.cs.oswego.0, aborting.

Case 2. Directly start awesome, in a shell (from another machine) tail -f 
.xsession-errors
When I press the shortcut to start urxvt, the following line gets added to 
.xsession-errors :
urxvt: can't open display moxie.cs.0, aborting.

It is interesting that the two display names that awesome tries using are 
different in the above cases. Both of them are incorrect, however. The correct 
one is moxie.cs.oswego.edu:11.0 .

I will be following this bug closely, so please tell me if you need more 
information.
