sunray server (srss) on gdm-2.22/-2.24 (fedora9)

only gdm <= 2.20 supports the gdmdynamic command. gdmdynamic is needed by the sunray server to create a new X sessions. if you install sunray server (srss) on a gdm > 2.20, you'll see:
+++SUNWutr-4.1-50.i386.rpm /etc/opt/SUNWut/xmgr/reset-dpy: line 65: gdmdynamic: not found (if installed, gdm > 2.20 will prevent you from logging in graphically. remove the package and restart gdm as root and you're fine again: rpm -e SUNWutr gdm-restart)
it seems that patches are available for gdm-2.22 and gdm-2.24 to reimplement gdmdynamic. hopefully they find their way quickly into the main gdm trunk (not yet in 2.24.1). http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gdm-list/2008-June/msg00001.html talks clearly about this, as well as about another bug, which has been fixed already. as i don't care so much about the gdm stuff, i'm trying to get SUNWutkau-4.1-50.i386.rpm SUNWutio-4.1-50.i386.rpm SUNWutdsk-4.1-50.i386.rpm going with linux-2.6.28-rc6-git1.
