Regarding gdm: I think why this is happening despite the fact that ConsoleKit upstream says that gdm shouldn't be starting CK until X has started is probably that we're carrying the patch in https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=593996. This queries CK for users before X starts.
However, it's wrong to assume that gdm is the only thing which starts ConsoleKit; other PAM sessions are quite liable to do so too, and it's entirely possible (if unlikely) for somebody to start a PAM session remotely while the X server happens to be starting. Thus, I argue that it makes sense to fix this in ConsoleKit independently of any changes in gdm. ** Bug watch added: GNOME Bug Tracker #593996 https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=593996 -- Active VT tracking can fail at startup https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/544139 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
