RE: how to create xauth cookies automatically

["Philippe Anctil" <z77y16 hotmail com>]

Hello again list,

I wrote some time ago about setting up xauth cookies with gdm. 
Unfortunately, I didn't find a way to workaround this. So I'm back using 
startx again. I'd really prefer using gdm.

I didn't have any answer about that. Please feel free to reply if my 
question needs to be clarified, if this is not gdm's business or anything 
like that. I'll carry this question over another list if need be ;-) I am 
self motivated. Any small hint will do.

Now I'm thinking why I'm not having a look at the code. Maybe I'll do just 
that ...

Anyways, let's keep in touch!
