This patch fixes SLiM so it really waits for the X server to be ready
|
|
before attempting to connect to it. Indeed, the X server notices that
|
|
its parent process has a handler for SIGUSR1, and consequently sends it
|
|
SIGUSR1 when it's ready to accept connections.
|
|
|
|
The problem was that SLiM doesn't pay attention to SIGUSR1. So in practice,
|
|
if X starts slowly, then SLiM gets ECONNREFUSED a couple of time on
|
|
/tmp/.X11-unix/X0, then goes on trying to connect to localhost:6000,
|
|
where nobody answers; eventually, it times out and tries again on
|
|
/tmp/.X11-unix/X0, and finally it shows up on the screen.
