Hi,

As i said in a previous message, after booting a ltsp thin-client
running 0.82debian1(0.82debian2 untested) starting gdm (otavio
confirmed the problem with wdm) it shows the login screen properly but
the keyboard doesn't generate any output when a key is pressed, it
seems that its unplugged.

Paulo Sousa, a co-worker tracked it down in November but this bug got
lost in my mind and his solution was edit client/screen.d/startx:

Where you read:
    ${XBINARY} ${ACC_CTRL}              \
                              ${XF_ARGS}               \
                              -xf86config ${XFCFG}     \
                              vt${TTY} ${DISP} >/dev/null 2>&1

He replaced the vt${TTY} ${DISP} with :0 only, but we agreed minutes
ago that removing vt${TTY} and keeping ${DISP} should work too
(testing in minutes). Comments?
