From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030703 Description of problem: I have no real statistics but I'd bet most people using gdm are using it on personal computers, not targeted (by default) at exporting X to other users. That way, gdm should not launch X allowing it to listen to tcp connections. This has a very simple fix and has been corrected in GDM (cvs.gnome.org) but correction has not yet been integrated into RedHat's gdm. More details at http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=87291 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): all versions untill current cvs (in gnome.org) How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: default settings for run level 5 Actual Results: tcp port 6000 is on LISTEN status Expected Results: tcp port 6000 NOT on LISTEN status Additional info:
Accidentally I submitted this same to Rawhide's bugs just few moments ago: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=98696
