20:28 < rxr> damn auto crak
20:29 < mnemoc> re rxr
20:32 < rxr> hi mnemoc
20:35 < mnemoc> did damn xf86 is action weird
20:36 < mnemoc> sometimes i first login using gdm, core gnome stuff is loaded but i have no permissions to use :0.0
20:36 < mnemoc> ctrl-alt-backspace -> xf86 moves to vc/8 and everything works again
20:44 < rxr> hm - this is not intended behaviour
20:45 < rxr> most probably gdm mis-configured ...
20:48 < mnemoc> but what about the randomness?
21:09 < rxr> in which way there is no permission to use :0 ?
21:19 < mnemoc> anything i did on gnome showed nothing on gnome, and from vc/1 with export DISPLAY even xhost fail with access denied
21:51 < rxr> does the DISPLAY=:0 some-prog as different user work?
21:51 < rxr> it should not IIRC due to authentication checks
21:51 < rxr> you would need to sahre the MIT magic cocki ...
21:52 < rxr> in the former ROCK we also hat such a X get's no input bug due to decoupling ?dm via the rc thus
21:52 < rxr> that X was start asynchronously and the init did start the gettys when X
21:53 < rxr> was up - so that the input was on a vc/? while X was up at vc/7
21:53 < rxr> although I do not know how an different vc managed to get the keyboard input while vc/7 was active - I think this is/was some kernel race condition in the vc code ...
21:54 * rxr did a short rest due to climbing in the afternoon - thus the delayed answer ...
21:58 < rxr> Committed revision 3940.
