A quick test revealed that those .Xauthority.* files are created when the machine is shutdown (via halt, or acpi power button event) and then brought up again. I assume that lightdm tries to make backup copies when .Xauthority is already present. It should try to query the X server for validity instead and zap the file. I had around 50 files or so in my home directory. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org
