reassign 750567 xinit retitle 750567 startx does not propagate the logind session thanks
>From discussion on IRC, the problem is that the logind session that gets created when I login on the text tty doesn't get propogated to the X11 tty. It can be seen by running 'loginctl show-session <id from loginctl list-sessions> and observing Active=no There is a workaround: to run 'startx -- vt6' instead of just 'startx'. I have no clue why this works, or why logind can't do this automatically, since 'ck-list-sessions' manages to know. Maybe startx has special logic to get consolekit to work? All I know is that I don't have an ~/.xsession or ~/.xinitrc and startx used to do the right thing before logind came around ... but why does passing the tty number to the X server during its startup magically make it work? <rant> IMO it should be considered the responsibility of logind maintainers to fix this bug, regardless of in what package, but apparently they consider it everyone else's problem to fix their breakage. I weep for systemd, because I love its architecture, but its community of blame-shifting is unbearable. How am I supposed to explain to people why I use linux, when I suddenly can't get wifi to work and they call it "not a bug"? </rant> _______________________________________________ pkg-kde-extras mailing list pkg-kde-extras@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pkg-kde-extras
