Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: xsplash
Hi
There's no /var/log/gdm/xsplash.log.
xsplash gets an EACCES when trying to create it. This might be due to
the weird sticky bit on the /var/log/gdm dir which is root:gdm and
ug+rwxt.
I think xsplash should take care to not clobber the log file
systematically (perhaps only clobber for the first call
"/usr/bin/xsplash --gdm-session --daemon") and should also log pids on
each line since there are two processes.
Attaching strace of xsplash startup
Thanks
