Binary package hint: xubuntu-default-settings
This concerns xubuntu-default-settings 10.04.5 in Ubuntu Lucid beta1.
The proper way of starting a Xubuntu session is by invoking
/usr/share/xubuntu/session.sh. Which is a problem if you use, say, a
less-intelligent display manag
These are two completely orthogonal issues. x-display-manager != x

Lionel, I don't mean to argue here against the principle of -meta

change I'm requesting is intended to be a temporary workaround for the
awkward situation caused by the current gdm package. The same effect
could be achieved by

Please be more judicious in your use of the term "autistic."
I'm not so fond of the "silent" GRUB at startup either, but as Colin
said, the design team pulls rank on this one.
That only affects the default install, however. What you can do is edit
