[ILUG] Re: KDE logout kills gdm's XDMCP service in dapper

[Andres Jimenez]

Just a short note about this issue.
The problem is not fixed yet. I keep googling for a hint and the worst
thing you can imagine is happening: using "kde logout stops XDMCP" as
keywords my previous email to ILUG is listed at the top of a Google
query [1] .

So I guess I should consider forgeting the issue and reinstall a fresh
copy of breezy in that server. Any other idea not involving going back
to the previous setup?
