Re: shaman - thanks! I think my previous point is still valid - I'm ok with such a work- around, being a unix admin for over 20 years now, but:
1. I'd rather not have to do such stuff any more. I'm past the days that X11 with Athena Widgets and TWM and compiling X11 from source was part of a sysadmin's work. That's why I use Ubuntu on my desktop - so it can handle the desktop stuff while I get to break the really interesting stuff like automatic kickstart installation of tens of xen hosts :), but it might not be an option if I try to tell windows-lusers "just try ubuntu" and then things like that happen to them. 2. What's the meaning of "Long Term SUPPORT" if this bug has "low priority" and it feels like "fixed in intrepid" is an answer? It looks like many people are hit by this bug (it hit me a few weeks ago and only yesterday I learned that it is related to automatic login - guess how many people are hit that didn't even see this bug report?)
