Hey,
So, I think these are our options
1) Install a script which runs sabayon-apply as
/etc/X11/gdm/Postsession/:0
Problem here is that it will only run when DISPLAY is :0 and we're
assuming that GDM won't start installing something there in the
future.
2) Document that you need to add /usr/sbin/sabayon-apply
to /etc/X11/gdm/Postsession/Default in order for profiles to get
applied.
Problem here is that it sucks. On the plus side, if sabayon was
actually added to a distro, you'd just add it to the script in the
GDM package. It also highlights the need for a hook like this, so
at some point we might actually add the hook we need to GDM.
3) Add a PAM module which would run sabayon-apply.
Down side is that you still need to make a configuration change -
i.e. add
session option pam_sabayon.so
to which services in /etc/pam.d you want. Another down side is I
suspect people might shout at us and call us crackheads for
executing things from PAM modules (but pam_xauth does run xauth
so...)
I think we should just go with (2) for now and look into adding a hook
to the default GDM scripts for us. Although I'm not totally convinced
yet that (3) is a terrible idea.
Cheers,
Mark.
