---|
8 | support. |

---|
10 | at-spi-registryd directly instead of calling at-spi-registryd-wrapper. |

---|
23 | script via the same interface that the old GDM supported. |

25 | that the login process does not need to access the user's $HOME directory |
---|
26 | before authentication. Refer to bug #565151. |

27 | - Fix the login GUI options widget so the language/session/layout choices are |
---|

---|
32 | layout dialogs are used. |
