** Description changed: In order to enable X11 forwarding from an external host you must explicitly set the Xserver to listen by overriding the xserver-command. Previously you could set the xserver-allow-tcp=true and it would do this automatically. I would have expected this change in behaviour to show up in README.Debian.gz but since it did not, perhaps the functionality of the "xserver-allow-tcp=true" is not working as expected. Below shows my before (no TCP listener on 6000) and after (TCP listener on 6000) lightdm.conf to re-enable the listener after the 15.04 upgrade. Before (14.10): ~$ cat /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf [SeatDefaults] xserver-allow-tcp=true After (15.04): ~$ cat /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf [SeatDefaults] xserver-command=X -core -listen tcp xserver-allow-tcp=true ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 15.04 Package: lightdm 1.14.0-0ubuntu2 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.19.0-15.15-generic 3.19.3 Uname: Linux 3.19.0-15-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.17.2-0ubuntu1 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: Unity Date: Mon Apr 27 17:33:26 2015 InstallationDate: Installed on 2014-12-18 (130 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 14.10 "Utopic Unicorn" - Release amd64 (20141022.1) LightdmConfig: - [SeatDefaults] - xserver-command=X -core -listen tcp - xserver-allow-tcp=true + [SeatDefaults] + xserver-command=X -core -listen tcp + xserver-allow-tcp=true SourcePackage: lightdm UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to vivid on 2015-04-27 (0 days ago) + + + ########################################### + i haven't /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf + when i tried to create it withe the lines above it was worse my system didin't start.
