I had this work, once, using pepper's instructions. Then I restarted my
XMing session to switch from Window to Fullscreen, and never got it
working again (without changing anything, going through all the
restart/reboot/etc hoops).

So I did a clean install on a virtual machine, with Lucid 10.4 rc,
repeated pepper's steps, got the chooser to come up, closed down the x
server, restarted, and same thing. So I rolled the virtual machine back,
repeated pepper's steps, and it worked. Closed the x server, restarted,
same thing.

I don't know why it works that first time - but the problem appears to
be that GDM is only listening on the udpv6 port:

netstat -an | grep 177

osm...@lucidrc:~$ netstat -an | grep 177
udp6       0      0 :::177                  :::*
