Hi there,

gdm 2.4.1.7-r1 has recently been marked stable. However, I have two problems with it: when I log out of my session and gdm tries to start a new X server, I get an error stating that there appears to be a server running on :0

Moreover, the second person logging in will have no sound because all sound devices are assigned crw---- to root.audio only, not the user logging in. I circumvented the problem by putting
Code:
chown $USER /dev/sound* /dev/snd/*

into /etc/X11/gdm/PostLogin/Default.

Does anybody have a cleaner solution how to fix this new problem?
