Package: ldm
Version: 2.0.6-4
Severity: wishlist
We've a larger Debian evironment, were the people are able to login to
normal Debian clients with gdm and at ThinClients provided with ltsp. Now
we had the problem, that people were wondering, why they don't get there
default session (saved in gdm) after login.
I've written a little patch to ldm which fixes the problem.

ok first, the good news: newer versions of ldm already support this, and the
versions of LDM and LTSP from testing should work with debian stable:

thanks for working on it! but...
the bad news: your patch is just too big to get into debian's lenny release;
only major bugs get fixed in the stable release.
maybe you'd be interested in tackling some bugs in the newer codebase? :)
live well,
