Bug Description

Binary package hint: xfce4-session

To workaround the current gdm issue (it leaves a spurious g-s-d running for a few seconds, so xfsettingsd can't start), we should start xfsettingsd with the --force option, so that it can forcefully replace g-s-d. Workaround to remove when the gdm issue is fixed.

---------------
xfce4-session (4.8.0-0ubuntu2) natty; urgency=low

  * debian/control: drop fortunes-mod from depends, xfce4-session uses an
    internal implementation. Move it to Suggests so people can still use it
    for real fortunes. lp: #707091
  * debian/patches:
    - xubuntu_force-xsettings-daemon.patch: start xfsettingsd with --force
      to replace a spurious gnome-settings-daemon instance left by gdm.
      Revert when gdm is fixed. lp: #709148
    - series: apply this patch.
