time for session D-BUS?

[Colin Walters <walters@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

Since we're doing stuff now that requires a session D-Bus, shouldn't we
patch the X init scripts to actually execute it?

Or were we thinking of an approach with gnome-session executing it?

Attached is a patch to implement in /etc/X11/xdm/Xsession.

We also need to patch gdm to depend on dbus-x11.
