Fedora Core 1 Test Update: gdm-2.4.4.5-1.2

Posted by Philipp Esselbach on: 02/05/2004 04:42 AM [ Print | 0 comment(s) ]

Fedora Core 1 Test Update Notification
FEDORA-2004-064
2004-02-05
---------------------------------------------------------------------

Name : gdm
Version : 2.4.4.5
Release : 1.2
Summary : The GNOME Display Manager.
Description :
Gdm (the GNOME Display Manager) is a highly configurable reimplementation of xdm, the X Display Manager. Gdm allows you to log into your system with the X Window System running and supports running several different X sessions on your local machine at the same time.




---------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

This is a bug fix update that resolves these three issues:

Bugzilla #110315 - GDM fails counting of XDMCP maximum sessions

This resolves the issue where XDMCP sessions would fail with
"Maximum number of open XDMCP sessions reached" due to problems with the MaxSession counter. This issue has been problematic especially for the K12LTSP community. K12LTSP expert administrators are thus encouraged to thoroughly test this update in production and report findings to the Bugzilla Tracking

Report below.

Bugzilla #113154 - GDM file descriptor leak
Also fixed by the same patch.

Bugzilla #113995 - GDM Japanese translations missing
Patch contributed by Jens Petersen.

Upgrade Note:
Due to past file format changes, gdm moves your existing gdm.conf and possibly other gdm configuration files to .rpmsave and replaces it with a pristine copy. Normal single desktop users probably do not need to worry about this, but this can be problematic for LTSP or VNC remote desktop users. It is recommended that these users review changes between the .rpmsave and pristine config file, and reconfigure. The 'gdmsetup' GUI config tool found in System Settings -> Login Screen may be useful in configuration of gdm.

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=114986

Please discuss this test update on k12osn and fedora-test-list. Report definite findings to this above Test Update Tracking report. If no regressions are confirmed by February 16th, 2004 then this update should become final.
