daemon: add a gdm session for gnome session to start (2.13 KB, patch)

Description Vincent Untz 2010-12-23 15:38:50 UTC 
With gnome-session 2.91.4, the way we define a session has changed. I've no idea what is the result with latest gdm, but it's possible that it might break the gdm login window...

I suggest you ship a gdm session file. It's really easy, just look at http://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-session/tree/data/classic-gnome.session.desktop.in.in.

And then launch gnome-session with "--session gdm". That should make sure you get the result you want.

It doesn't seem like it breaks it, since we point gnome-session to a separate autostart directory that has e.g. X-GNOME-Provides=windowmanager overrides.

Never the less, you're right we should have a separate session file.

Previously, we just piggy backed off the gnome one,
but it's better to have our own.
