Right, right. I probably deserve to get spanked for not using the
proper terminology.
Anyway, I'd like to pop X windows on my desktop. I have gnome setup
(including gdm), everything is working fine, except that I don't have X
configured to use an external port such that I can "xhost +servername"
and pop a window on my desktop.
Previously, this was done via gdm.conf and I've been doing this for
years this way and if you look in:
/usr/share/*gdm*/defaults.*conf*
you'll see the potential settings.
Well, you made yourself clear now! Your previous email gave me and
Volker a completely wrong view of your problem, and you gotta admit
you sent a wrong subject and a body that contained information leading
us to think as we did.
You probably can do all this setting using GDM itself, then check the
config files and see how they were written by the app. Go System ->
Configure Login Manager and check what you need there...
