Package: hibernate Version: 1.12-1 Severity: normal Tags: patch The xpid code in the hibernate script looks for one of a long list of window managers to figure out what user is running X. This failed for me, since my window manager, ion3, is not included in the list (neither are ion2 or ion, or probably several others). I think that the last program in the list, X, matched, but of course the X process itself is running as root so it gets the wrong user and things don't work.
I think there are probably better ways to do this when xdm is used. For example, here I have: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~>last :0 | grep 'still logged in' joey :0 Mon Jan 30 22:21 still logged in I've attached a patch to use that. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.15-1-686 Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) hibernate depends on no packages.
