Just for clarification's sake: I'm not saying I support the session manager starting the sound server daemon ... just that that's how I believe it's currently implemented. Using the library was one of the approaches I mentioned and seems to be the least work-intensive to implement, though doing service starting with associated well-known server ports a'la xinetd is generic enough that if everybody started doing it, we may actually appease all those users who keep clamoring for no-switching on of unneeded services which are currently done by default. (I know I've had to switch of some services like isdn, hplip, bluetooth, hidd, lm_sensors, etc.) -- Richi Plana -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
