Umm... not really. I think I got the name wrong (I did say "or whatever |
| 12 |
it was called). I was thinking earlier, pam-console maybe? |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
It's quite evident I'm rather confused by this consolekit stuff. It |
| 15 |
became a requirement for xorg somewhere along the line and I have it |
| 16 |
installed (the 0.3.0 version you mention), but I've not touched the |
| 17 |
configuration at all as I haven't the foggiest, except that I know that |
| 18 |
despite starting it as a service, xorg still complains about it in that |
| 19 |
brief half-second or so before it switches to the X VT... and it's |
| 20 |
scrolled out of the buffer by the usual assortment of KDE complaints long |
| 21 |
before I get back to it, and doesn't appear in the xorg log. Despite the |
| 22 |
complaint, X still works, certainly the reason I've not spent more time |
| 23 |
on it. |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
There's probably some documentation about it somewhere, but while I make |
| 26 |
it a point to read the elog messages, either I've a blind spot in that |
| 27 |
regard (entirely possible), or there's been nothing pointing out what |
| 28 |
it's all about. |
| 29 |
|
| 30 |
I feel like this is a bit of an abuse of the devel list for user |
| 31 |
issues... anyway, feel free to mail me directly or take it to the |
| 32 |
desktop list, which is somewhat topical at least. Or just point me to |
| 33 |
some documentation, and I'll shut up and read it and post any questions |
| 34 |
to the desktop list or whatever when I'm done. |
| 35 |
|
| 36 |
But bringing it back to development and thus on topic, if I'm missing the |
| 37 |
documentation, I'm sure others are as well. Maybe that's what I should |
| 38 |
file a bug on? As should be evident by now, I'm rather confused on the |
| 39 |
topic... but I guess having it so publicly demonstrated keeps me humble. |
| 40 |
=:^) But if I'm confused and I spend quite some time on trying to keep |
| 41 |
up with such things, what about the poor user that doesn't have that time |
| 42 |
to spend? |
