[Bug 876399] [NEW] kdm upstart profile

[Jürgen Sauer]

Public bug reported:

kdm should be started later, after Networking is up and Remote
Filesystems are also up.

Reason: in Enterprise environments a Desktop system is used by non-admin users. After showing up the logon screen an successful logon of a user must be possible.
Nearly all Linux Entrerprise Desktops are using IMHO NIS+NFS. So an user Logon may show/usable after User Athorisation (NIS) and the User $HOME (normally served as NFS) is avaible.

in /etc/init/kdm.conf should read as follow:
----- x----x----x----
[ ... ]
start on ((filesystem
           and runlevel [!06]
 	   and local-filesystems and remote-filesystems and net-device-up
           and started dbus
           and (drm-device-added card0 PRIMARY_DEVICE_FOR_DISPLAY=1
                or stopped udev-fallback-graphics))
          or runlevel PREVLEVEL=S)
[...]

This closes here also Bug #599812 (NIS Problem).

BTW: It silences the Helpdesk lines dramatically ...
