No?
Yes, I suppose this could be the case. I haven't looked at how those distributions do X startup. However, this is quite useful for platforms like Maemo or other platforms using X with Upstart and booting strait into the UI. As I mentioned, I'm just sending this through because I would like to keep as close to upstream as possible, so if it gets in, then good, but it's not a big deal if not. -- Oliver. _______________________________________________ xorg-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg-devel
