I am trying to get sound working on an LTSP installation using Debian unstable
& Gnome 2.4. My problem is that I cannot pass the LD_PRELOAD environment
variable to the Gnome GUI.
Note: Sound works correctly if I launch the application from an Xterm window,
where LD_PRELOAD is not null.
I know that the following script is called from gdm when the user logs in:
/etc/X11/gdm/Sessions/Gnome
In that script I placed my call to ". /etc/sysprofile" which in turn calls
"/etc/sysprofile.d/ltsp-sound.bash".
At the end of "/etc/X11/gdm/Sessions/Gnome" is a call to the binary
executable:
exec /usr/bin/gnome-session --purge-delay=15000
It appears that this executable discards the LD_PRELOAD environment variable.
Am I right? Has anyone else encountered this problem? Is there a workaround?
Thanks
JDR
