gdm was broken and did not allow XDMCP connections in 11.3  Halfline cooked a patch and I was able to get it to merge and compile and it indeed is now working.

I'm uploading the two patches along with the updated gdm.spec file.  They are listed as Patch98 and Patch99 in the spec.

Reproducible: Always

updated gdm.spec file

Comment 4 Vincent Untz 2010-09-03 18:35:38 UTC

Maintenance team: can we add those two patches to gdm in 11.3?

Comment 5 Vincent Untz 2010-09-03 18:37:35 UTC

Note: we might want a backport of http://git.gnome.org/browse/gdm/commit/?id=cdc8f37268 too, to add a disconnect button for remote clients.

Comment 6 Christian Dengler 2010-09-07 14:40:24 UTC

+1
yes, an update is reasonable; Vincent, we should pick up all fixes (comment #5) ;-)

no one against, so update started.

Comment 9 Vincent Untz 2010-09-15 07:52:54 UTC

I submitted the patch with the change for bug 633655 (in sr#48181), where the patchinfo should be handled by the security team, as far as I understand. What should I do with the patchinfo here?

Comment 10 Ludwig Nussel 2010-09-15 13:20:03 UTC

I've included the bug number in the patchinfo for the security update.

Comment 12 Forgotten User 4avjVdS62U 2010-12-16 20:24:13 UTC

@all:  Looks like the patch for comment #5 didn't land.  Confirmed that XDMCP is working again with this patch, but #5 gives you a disconnect button so that users can disconnect from the authentication screen and return back to the previous login screen on thin clients.

rpm -q --changelog gdm-2.30.2-6.1.1.x86_64

- Add gdm-fix-dbus-properties.patch: org.gnome.DBus.Properties was
  referenced instead of org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties in the dbus
  configuration. Fix bnc#633655.
- Add gdm-xdmcp-fixes.patch to fix connection with XDMCP. Fix
  bnc#637069.
