getXuser() just switched from finger to w a month ago, and that was a Good
Thing.
But w has a problem as well:
- -f Toggle printing the from (remote hostname) field. The default as
released is for the from field to not be printed, although your
system administrator or distribution maintainer may have compiled
a version in which the from field is shown by default.
(from man w)
There is not a way to force w to show the From field; just a way to toggle from
the default behavior.
And it looks like the default behaviour in debian is diverted from mainstream
at compile time.
I guess things could change without any prior notice, leaving us with a broken
script; maybe it's better to rely on pinky.
$ pinky -fw
root *tty2 00:04 2008-10-13 22:46
luca tty7 2008-10-13 20:58 :0
root pts/5 00:02 2008-10-13 22:46 :0.0
luca pts/6 00:02 2008-10-13 22:47 :0.0
We need to pick the second and the last fields, which makes:
user=`pinky -fw | awk '{ if ($2 == ":'$displaynum'" || $(NF) ==
":'$displaynum'" ) { print $1; exit; } }'`
Since we check the strict equality to :displaynum, it doesn't matter if some
lines do not have the From field and we read the login time.
Pinky is included in coreutils, so we don't need to depend on it; debian
version does not divert from the mainstream behaviour; furthermore, it has a
funny name.
Comments?
Luca
P.S.
I use gdm; can someone using xdm test it please? I don't see why it shouldn't
work, but you never know...
P.P.S.
I think it's still quite ugly to get the display owner this way; but I was not
able to find a sane way to do it.
I'll propose this also for a script in fglrx-atieventsd that is using finger at
the moment.

Description:
acpi-support - scripts for handling many ACPI events
acpi-support-base - scripts for handling base ACPI events such as the power
button
Closes: 456778 484934 496570 497377 501607 502141 503320 504012 509588 510619

Changes:
acpi-support (0.121-1) unstable; urgency=low
.
* New upstream version:
* Correct suspend.d/55-down-interfaces.sh to point to
/var/run/network/ifstate rather than /etc/network/run/ifstate.
* Drop events/asus-mail: On newer Asus, like the eeePc, this is an
ACPI event generated by pulling out the power chord, not pressing
a mail key. The latter should be handled by hal-info now; if you
have an Acer laptop with a mail key, please report a bug against
hal-info, closes: #516662
* Drop acpi_fakekey translations for keys that are correctly handled
in the kernel input layer:
- events/ibm-sleepbtn
- events/ibm-lockbtn, thinkpad-lockorbattery.sh
- events/ibm-hibernatebtn
- events/lenovo-lockbtn
- events/ibm-videobtn, closes: #456778, #515794
- events/thinkpad-mute, always-mute.sh
- events/thinkpad-volume-down
- events/thinkpad-volume-up
- events/thinkpad-thinklight, thinkpad-thinklight.sh
- events/tosh-brightness-up
- events/tosh-brightness-down, toshbright.sh
- events/tosh-mute
- events/tosh-sleep
- events/sony-hibernate
- events/sony-brightness-up, events/sony-brightness-down, sonybright.sh
- events/thinkpad-brightness-down, events/thinkpad-brightness-up,
thinkpad-brightness-up.sh, thinkpad-brightness-down.sh
* Also drop events/thinkpad-zoom, thinkpad-zoom.sh because this key
isn't working correctly with or without this script and should be
fixed up in hal.
* Simplified packaging.
* Removed obsolete config files if they are unchanged.
* Do not install 90-hdparm.sh four times, closes: #509588
* Thinkpad_acpi.modprobe was removed upstream because it is said to be not
needed anymore, closes: #518570
* Restore old scripts that were incorrectly merged, closes: #524986
* Made getXuser() use pinky instead of w, closes: #502141, #510619, #515784
* Added patch to adjust panabright.sh for new panasonic_laptop driver that
uses /sys instead of /proc, closes: #524838, #524841
* Deconfigure wireless devices before powering them down, closes: #496570
* Fixed incorrect variable usage in madwifi handling, closes: #501607
* Clarified documentation about acpi-support method, closes: #484934, #497377
* Recognize 901 as an EeePC as well, closes: #504012
* Added a sync call to suspendorhibernate, closes: #503320
* Also check for KDE4 powerdevil in CheckPolicy, closes: #520669
* Added real package console-tools to dependency on virtual package
console-utilities.
* Made all scripts use invoke-rc.d where possible.
