Package: xdm Version: 6.8.2.dfsg.1-6 Severity: important
When connecting to the xdm server with "X -indirect <servername>" the chooser does not pick up the local xdm session. "X -query <servername>" works fine. When using BROADCAST and other xdmcp servers are available, the chooser will list these but not the local xdmcp server. When no other xdmcp servers are available the chooser has one entry, "list", which will cycle the xdm connection if selected. I suspect this is connected with the IPv6 issue where xdm has broadcast problems if the interface is not listed with "LISTEN <ip-address>" in Xaccess. I get no error messages from xdm using -debug. Issue is reproducible and has been tested on several machines. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.12.5 Locale: LANG=en_GB, LC_CTYPE=en_GB (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Versions of packages xdm depends on: ii cpp 4:4.0.1-3 The GNU C preprocessor (cpp) ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.4.58 Debian configuration management sy ii libc6 2.3.5-6 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libice6 6.8.2.dfsg.1-6 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libpam-modules 0.76-23 Pluggable Authentication Modules f ii libpam-runtime 0.76-23 Runtime support for the PAM librar ii libpam0g 0.76-23 Pluggable Authentication Modules l ii libselinux1 1.24-4 SELinux shared libraries ii libsm6 6.8.2.dfsg.1-6 X Window System Session Management ii libxau6 6.8.2.dfsg.1-6 X Authentication library ii libxaw8 6.8.2.dfsg.1-6 X Athena widget set library ii libxdmcp6 6.8.2.dfsg.1-6 X Display Manager Control Protocol ii libxext6 6.8.2.dfsg.1-6 X Window System miscellaneous exte ii libxinerama1 6.8.2.dfsg.1-6 X Window System multi-head display ii libxmu6 6.8.2.dfsg.1-6 X Window System miscellaneous util ii libxp6 6.8.2.dfsg.1-6 X Window System printing extension ii libxpm4 6.8.2.dfsg.1-6 X pixmap library ii libxt6 6.8.2.dfsg.1-6 X Toolkit Intrinsics ii xbase-clients 6.8.2.dfsg.1-6 miscellaneous X clients ii xlibs 6.8.2.dfsg.1-6 X Window System client libraries m xdm recommends no packages. -- debconf information: xdm/stop_running_server_with_children: false xdm/daemon_name: /usr/bin/X11/xdm * shared/default-x-display-manager: xdm -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
