Displays :1 and up don't get utmp entries. Originally reported in Red Hat bugzilla by Tim Waugh: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=20901 A fix for this issue is also attached to that bug report, and I'll add the patches here also for review.
Created attachment 2375 [details] [review] Fix for xdm-config.cpp to ensure logins on all displays make it to utmp
Created attachment 2376 [details] Xstartup file for xdm
Created attachment 2377 [details] Xreset file for xdm
The attached patch for xdm-config was made against the 6.8.2 release. I'll also attach a unified diff containing all changes in one patch.
Created attachment 2378 [details] [review] xorg-x11-6.8.2-xdm-config-utmp-fixes.patch This unified diff was created against stock 6.8.2 sources. It contains of all of the above changes plus changes to the Imakefile to install the new files in the right place. It applies cleanly to 6.8.2, as well as CVS head (as of today). Please review and apply this to CVS head. It should also be considered for the stable branch, as there are security ramifications of displays not getting logged in utmp.
