Changelog
gdm (2.29.1-0ubuntu4) lucid; urgency=low
* debian/patches/05_initial_server_on_vt7.patch:
- Fix a bug in the patch: the return value of open() can be zero on
success, because zero is a valid file descriptor! This probably
never broke in the real world, because we always have standard
input set to something, but it's worth fixing bugs when you find
them ;-)
* debian/patches/27_save_root_window.patch:
- Patch taken from the plymouth-integration branch of Upstream GIT
to save the root window pixmap in a property for other things to
pick up.
* debian/patches/28_plymouth_transition.patch:
- Patch taken from the plymouth-integration branch of Upstream GIT,
makes gdm check whether plymouth is running on startup; if it is,
actively arranges for a smooth transition. Also handles getting
plymouth out of the way in case the X server doesn't start.
* debian/gdm.upstart:
- Remove "starting-dm" event; the above patch means we handle
stopping the splash screen gracefully by ourselves so don't need
it.
- Only look at /etc/X11/default-display-manager and /proc/cmdline
when started automatically; always allow "start gdm" to work.
- Use the PRIMARY_DEVICE_FOR_DISPLAY tag on the framebuffer or
drm card devices to start the X server, still falling back on
end of udev probing (we may have neither). Drop the tty
part, we need both more and less than this. LP: #491162.
