Package: nodm Version: 0.6-1 Severity: wishlist Hello,
as a medium to long term plan, it'd be nice to have nodm run as a single process, like most other display managers do. Doing this involves, as far as I understand: - starting X in the background - waiting for X to be ready by waiting for SIGUSR1 and checking if X accepts connections - forking, setting up the environment for the X session, including the DISPLAY variable, and execing the X session - waiting until either X or the X session dies, and kill the other one A possible place to steal^Wget inspiration from code is xdm's server.c I don't know when I'll have time to get round to do this. Until that happens, patches are obviously welcome.
